And we are back again at the wine tour in Alicante, this time with two lovely couples from Ireland that enjoyed the day with us visiting this charming part of Alicante province called "Vinalopó Medio".
In this ocassion we had the chance to see one of the cave houses in La Algueña. We were at nearly 40C outside but inside one of this houses the temperature was no more than 22C... You need to sleep with a blanket even in the summer! Amazing!
We also meet some of the locals, one of them a retired policeman that told us a funny joke and explained many things about his life.
It was a good experience, finishing the day with some Irish songs in the car making the jorney back home more pleasant... :)
Thanks to Laura, Nick, Laura and Keith for being interested in our culture and way of life. We hope you return to Alicante soon.

Y volvemos a la ruta del vino esta vez con dos parejas de Irlanda que nos acompañaron a visitar esta parte de la provincia de Alicante llamada comarca del Vinalopó Medio.
En esta ocasión tuvimos la oportunidad de visitar una de las muchas casas cueva que existen en La Algueña. En la calle estabamos a casi 40 grados, pero al entrar en esta bonita casa la temperatura bajó a unos 22C... En esta casa necesitan una mantita para dormir hasta en los meses de verano! Increible!
Conocimos a algún lugareño, uno de ellos un policía retirado muy divertido que nos contó un chiste de mondarse y muchas cosas acerca de su vida.
Pasamos un día muy divertido, finalizando con algunas canciones irlandesas en el coche de camino a casa.
Gracias a Laura, Nick, Laura y Keith por viajar con nosotros e interesarse por la cultura y la forma de vida alicantinas. Esperamos que volváis pronto a Alicante.

Hello Mireia,
ResponderEliminarWhat a lovely blog about our wine tour! We all had a brill day out. It was really well organised, informative and you were both so friendly. We will definately recommend it to other Irish people so that they can sing more Irish songs :) I will always remember Raymondo the police man and his very long and funny joke.
Take care, Laura and Nick
Hola Laura!
ResponderEliminarI am glad you enjoyed.
I think we all had a wonderful day out. Yes, Raimundo was a character to remember on this trip. Even I get excited when we mix up with the local people and you feel they are very welcoming and are happy to see you around.
The joke was worth telling here but I cannot remember it all..
Take care lovely and please come back one day! ;)
