| Received 6 Apr 02: We left Marbella on Wednesday (Editor: the 3rd April) and went to Seville, but didn�t see many oranges! The town was pretty though and we had a good look around. Thursday we headed to Isla Christina about 10 km from the portuguese border, and it rained lots and lots. We believe there was a beach about 100m from our pitch, but who knows? we couldn�t see for the rain! So Yesterday morning we aimed for Albufeira on the Algarve coast, but ended up driving all the way to Lisbon in one go as it was still raining, and we didn�t see the point of staying trapped in the bus in the rain on the coast. We ended up doing our longest drive yet, about 400km which took about 7hours with 2 coffee stops. We arrived in Lisbon centre over an amazing bridge, and managed to pitch up and still make it out to a huge shopping complex for a few hours last night. We were completely exhausted so only stayed out 'til about 10:30. This morning we got drenched again, as still raining all the time. We took a open-top tour of the centre of Lisbon, felt like proper tourists! Going to have a traditional Portuguese meal tonight, if we can work out what that is! Thats all folks! Take care everyone, We miss you all!! Adam & Becky Received 10 Apr 02: Hi everyone, We are now in Madrid, really making up some miles this week! Here are a couple of pictures from our trip so far. A map of route (approx) to date, Becky and Adam in a Morrocan restaurant in Tangiers after eating some interesting food. Becky eating traditional Portugese fare in a special restaurant in a cultural centre in Lisbon. (It used to be a palace!) We tried to do a sightseeing tour of Madrid this morning, but after buying the tickets and waiting at a bus stop for half an hour, we went back to the ticket office and were told the buses were on strike!! So we may head off towards Zarragona thisavo. Anyway, keep the emails coming, and we havent heard from some of you in a while!! Haven�t had any texts for weeks either!! We still miss you all though. At least it has stopped raining for a bit. Take Care Ads & Beck Received 30 April 2002: Hi Folks, Sorry it has been so long, we are alive and well and staying in the south of france.
