Managed a cheeky week trip to the Costa blanca, a nice change from our annual El Chorro trip. A great hotel at half board kept us well fed- and Paul just loved driving the fanny 500. Weather was great, so good I've never been dripped on so much by Paul...
Eliea is a route at Altea Coll that I had in mind for this trip (recommended by Frances). I got on this day 2- it was great but frustrating to miss the onsite by one move. Having said that, getting shut down in Spain is just the push needed for continued motivation of the training ready for Kaly in June.
Forada was another place on the list, but saving that for a weekend was a mistake as it was packed with locals- so just managed to get on a single route in the superheroes sector. Gandia lived up to expectations although with the sun being so strong it made it very difficult climbing here. Perhaps the second trip to Gandia on the last day was a bit optimistic for sore arms after a week of climbing!
