Who
and where
Roughly half way between Alicante and Murcia airports
hides the village of Torremendo. This is the real
Spain. People speak loudly (in Spanish), let off
fireworks, apparently because it's a Sunday or Monday,
and dinner doesn't start until half past nine in
the evening.
The baker's van calls every day- you'll hear his
horn blaring at 11.30. The fish man every couple
of days, and the draper's van once a week. The shoe
man arrives now and again.The potato van on a Sunday.
Here we have a reknowned restaurant whose specialities
include wild rabbit paella or local snails in garlic.
We overlook an azure lake teeming with carp and
black bass.
Walkers, cyclists and nature lovers only have to
walk 100 metres to be on the tracks that encircle
it. We have an irrigation canal whose level bank
is well surfaced for over 30km south to Cartagena.
Others meander here and there amongst the acres
and acres of orange, lemon, almond and olives. You
are more likely to spot little egrets or hawks than
seagulls. House martens love to nest under the balconies.
Deer, hare, partridge & black grouse are frequently
seen, with date or banana palms almost as common
as the various types of cactus.
Golfers
have at least 7 courses within 15 minutes, from
a simple par 3 course to a splendid championship
6000 metre par 72.
This is not a tourist development with swimming
pools Irish bars and hypermarkets; they are a twelve
minute drive away.
If
it's city life you like, Torrevieja is stuffed with
an international selection of bars and restaurants-
Spanish, English, Irish, Brazillian, Moroccan, Russian
and Portuguese. No doubt there are others I haven't
seen.
Orihuela, rich in history, with moorish architecture,
medieaval churches, a ruined castle the second largest
palm garden in Europe, and all the shops you could
ask for is 12 minutes in the opposite direction
from Torrevieja. It's Tuesday market is terrific,
and with a main line railway station, you can travel
cheaply to the cities of Alicante and Murcia without
worrying about where to park.
