Oliva

12th December

Decided to go for a long haul where we would use the page motorway and get some miles behind us. Michael and Maria, or was it Marianne, or maybe Matilda, who were parked next to us in El Garrufer had mentioned Kikopark campsite in Oliva, just north of Denia. This would be a 180 mile run but we would then stay a day and chill. Looking at the Camping Club book there are 4 sites there which are open all year round so no need to book. The drive was uneventful. Miles of typical wide open Spanish landscape. Arriving at Oliva we head for the beach as all the sites are there. There are sign posts through the town to them and then again on the beach to them but COULD we find them. Non. I then found that Kikopark was actually one of the ones downloaded into the Tomtom, so Jane to the rescue and soon we comfortably settled into our Premier site right by the beach















and next to their Michelin Star!!!! Restaurant. "it is law, Signora (as Jc points out, I am no longer a Señorita!), dogs are not allowed on any beach in Spain." However, there were many dogs on this beach all off the lead and tearing around having a great time.

I met an English lady who arrived on the 7th November, and they are staying there until the end of March. It was the best site we have been to although I doubt whether we would have been happy to do more than a fortnight there. Most of the other campers were German and some of the vans were ENORMOUS. Like 9 metres and double decker height. One of them has a garage at the back end where the smart car can drive in. That's cool!
