This morning we had a bit of a sleep in (8.15) as we don't have to be anywhere at a set time.It's the last morning of the tour and on the way to breakfast we saw some of our fellow travelers who are leaving Spain today to either head off to other destinations or home.After breakfast we went to find the post office to post some stuff back home.Well, we finally got back to the hotel….3 hours later!!And the post office was only about 10 minutes away.Everything takes so much longer when you don't speak the language.Well l spent the rest of the day in bed with a temperature while Mum went for a wander. So, l've learnt that Spain has lots of olive trees, orange trees, cathedrals, roman walls, aqueducts, provinces capitals of provinces, bulls, pigs, horses, villages, that the Spaniards don't entertain at home(because they have no room) but instead meet in street cafes and mostly stand to eat and drink at the cafes/bars, a bottle of bubbly costs 65 cents and a bottle of brandy is 1 euro 75 cents.Oh…..and most of them don't speak English.It's a really wonderful country and was great to see l just think we did too much and it was a bit rushed.Better to concentrate on a couple of cities for two weeks as there is just so much to see and do.Tomorrow we leave Spain and head over to the UK for 4 days.
