Wednesday 21st May

Our last night in Mojacar Pueblo was spent in party mood with the help of Herman the German and the campsite skiffle band, complete with washboard and a giant plastic washing up bowl variation of the tea chest double bass. The highlight of the evening’s repertoire was a German version of Lonnie Donegan’s  ‘My Ole Man’s a Dustman’, something got lost in translation but we did have a laugh.

Onwards and upwards, we followed the mediterranean condo strip coast north to Aguila, then headed inland to the mountains via Velez Rubio and Velez Blanco where we found our ideal villa in a perfect location including a much sort after mountain view aspect and parking for a picnic lunch.

Our final destination was the village of El Berro, deep in the heart of the Parque Natural de Sierra Espuna in search of the illusive mouflon.
