Stuck in Benidorm

princesslodgey Posts: 1,748 Joined: 2004/02/21	2005/02/11, 02:53 PM Business trip to Spain was extended due to my flight being delayed for 24 hours. The only hotel the airline could find to put us up in was in Benidorm, which for those of you who aren´t from Europe, is one of the sleaziest, over developed resorts in Spain, if not the world! I am currently using the internet access in the hotel "magic rock gardens" which is one of the many concrete high rise hotels in the area, but also has an interesting papier mache facade and Faux-Easter Island style statues. I very much hope to be home tomorrow.

Finally got in at 6 am this morning. I am going back to Spain next week, but this time it's for a holiday, so you can rest assured I've picked a hotel with excellent gym facilities in addition to the 3 golf courses it has :big_smile::big_smile::big_smile::big_smile:
