Today, head to the beach in Roquetas, but first, the breakfast! Churros and ColaCao are on the menu for this day departure.

And here we go for Roquetas. On the road, the sign for the biquettes and a little later, a large house. Sam explained to me that it belongs to a collector who collects a little of everything and nothing, howitzer, bus, old traction, English telephone box, etc ...

Roquetas! And ... aguadulce ... like fig leaf brandy ?

After finding a place right by the sea, it is a bit early to eat, so we are going for a walk and shopping for souvenirs. Sam has a good address, and the store is large and full of various things, exactly what we were looking for!

On the way back (we are desperately looking for something to put down, eat and go to the toilet!), We see a table football that takes itself seriously.

Restaurant found! Here we are in El Pirata, and since I have never tasted gazpacho, Sam offers to take some, followed by a marine paella. The gazpacho was excellent, the paella too, but let's say that for the paella, the portions were huge, we could have eaten it with 4 peoples !

After this meal close to the pantagruelic, direction the beach somehow (how that we ate too much? But no!). Between a nap on the sand and intensive swimming (4 round trips to the buoys for my part ... 5 hours of swimming, I was not used to it!).
The afternoon passes and we are going to go back, we fold the things, and head for the way back. On the return, it quickly turns out that I have pains which come to me little by little at the level of the shoulders, arms, up to the fingertips. I am a little numb, and the more time passes, the less I am able to move my arms. I think I forced a little too much for swimming ...
We are getting ready to go see the start of the Feria with the parade, there are people on the streets, and we are coming for the parade. There are riders, tanks, the main street is decorated everywhere, it's beautiful!

We all lose sight of each other, we find ourselves, not quite, in fact if ... or not .... We all end up in a place where we manage to have a large table for everything the world. There are concerts, we eat, we drink!

And I realize that I can no longer move my arms and that the pain is throwing me like never, to the point of having almost tears in my eyes ... I really forced too much on the swim, that will teach me. We go home, and I hasten to take something to calm the pain before going to bed in the least worst of positions ... Sleep quickly embarks me, see you tomorrow!
