The Fish Restaurant – Part 2.

Throughout my adult life the majority of major decisions have been made on ‘gut feeling’. First, I have to make the decision, whether it is right or not is then confirmed by how I feel inside knowing the decision I have made.

When we decided to move to Spain, it felt right. It has felt right at every stage so far. The decision to reserve a property at San Juan de los Terreros felt right. We had now decided on the house we would buy and paid our reservation fee. We had all the plans to take home with us and we had put the pin into the site plan in the site office to say this was ours. We now knew where we would be living in Spain – we had reserved a plot on Calas Del Pinar. It wasn’t built yet, but at least we had moved one step forward. http://www.tarletonproperty.com/property/id/20009

To celebrate, we walked down onto the promenade and had coffee sitting outside a bar in the autumn sunshine, listening to the waves rippling onto the beach and visualising life here. Wonderful!

It was now time to head back towards Murcia and leave Almeria behind us, but we would be back next month.

Once we were back in Murcia we decided we would go back and have a further look around the houses at Los Alcazares, and to take some photos so we had something to refer to when we were back home.

Having done this, Dan suggested we go back to the Fish Restaurant and eat a celebratory meal there. It was Monday and so it was unlikely to be busy. We drove up and sure enough there were plenty of parking spaces free.

With great promise of great seafood we got out of the car and walked over to the restaurant door …… only to find it was closed on Mondays! It would seem we are not to eat here on this trip.

Instead, we went out to Roda Golf course. We had played Roda last time we were in Murcia and it is a lovely course. The club house is only small at the moment, but it did serve good food, we had eaten there when we played so we had a good meal over looking the 18th green, watching to see how many would take the courageous shot over the water to the green and how many would play safe. Neither Dan or Russell are golfers so some of the enjoyment we got from eating there was lost on them, but it was a nice place to spend a couple of hours before heading off to the airport.

And the Fish Restaurant – well, we would be back – and now know not to try Sundays or Mondays.
