Looking Down

One of my friends has an interesting hobby; "Paramotor". I have had the pleasure of riding a dirtbike with him around the old mines in El Algar but I drew the line with this one. I hope you enjoy this video, it does show off the area really well.

Murcia City

If you can't get to see Murcia City which is something we all should do at some point whether you live here or are just visiting, this is the next best thing. He did a good job of showing us around the streets and it's worth watching.

Shark!

I saw this video as it made the rounds online last year. A shark was filmed in the Port of Cartagena. There is no need to worry, it's extremely rare.

Dreamstones

Nothing wrong with a little bit of self-promotion from time to time. I am on the lookout for people who have an interesting and diverse background with a story to tell. My interest outside of work is writing and I published my first novel; "Dreamstones" in America in 2011.  The original cover was designed by; Pink Frog in a UK studio but was changed by publisher recommendation to the image below. The book itself was inspired by my daughter who had trouble sleeping. I was fortunate to have Amazon, Waterstones, iBooks and W.H.Smiths on my side at the launch and it opened so many doors for me personally. Today I continue to write when time allows with a second novel being penned. The title; "ZANA" is only a holding one and it still needs a publisher to progress it to the next stage. "I need an extra hour in every day" I have now kept this blog just to help promote members of the community who have interesting stories to share. Thanks

Blog Split

We have had a few complaints that this blog should remain clear of property adverts, as we approach 6,000 views we decided to make that change. As of tomorrow, this will be the address of our property blog: https:/ /losalcazaresproperty.blogspot.com.es/ Both blogs will be featured on our Facebook page everytime an entry has been posted. Please click subscribe if you want automatic updates. If you have a story that you think should be told, contact me.

White Lines

Ever looked out towards that Manhattan scene just across the pond? Yes, that forms that lovely blend of mountains, buildings and sea. I think this video although somewhat dated gives us an indication of just what it's like on the other side. 18km of roads, infrastructure, shops, bars and restaurants you would be surprised just how many people live there on and offseason. Curious minds need feeding, thanks for reading.

CÓMO ERA LA MANGA ENTRE 1963 Y 1980
