It was probably the best meal we have ever had - anywhere.

Then, back to London to visit family for a few days. We started the drive down to Southern Spain by taking the Channel Tunnel over to Calais. It is really quick, only 35 minutes, but feels rather claustrophobic. The first day we drove to Tours and then on through Bordeaux and Cognac into Spain and stayed the second night in a bustling city in Northern Spain, Logrono. Onwards through Spain , we stayed the third night at a magificent Palacio in a tiny place named Mengibar. The room was spacious and comfortable and the whole hotel was gorgeous.We were having a minor challenge with our camera, hence no pictures! Finally on day four we arrived back at our beautiful villa on the Costa del Sol. We are so happy and grateful to be back, and are now once again able to gaze out over the Mediterraneon every day - it is breathtaking.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7484767338410441842-1810667966918909177?l=twohappybrits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://twohappybrits.blogspot.com/feeds/1810667966918909177/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7484767338410441842&amp;postID=1810667966918909177' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7484767338410441842/posts/default/1810667966918909177'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7484767338410441842/posts/default/1810667966918909177'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://twohappybrits.blogspot.com/2009/10/we-leave-california-for-spain.html' title='We leave California for Spain'/><author><name>Two Happy Brits</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12055895318681867071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/S6IBwG1VIJI/AAAAAAAAAjY/JKPJ-OnAW5g/S220/Cancun+2007+010.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7484767338410441842.post-1926818528244337743</id><published>2009-08-05T14:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-05T15:15:13.068-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Big Island of Hawaii</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SnoACvQVHwI/AAAAAAAAAcY/lUyy3Wtr_Zs/s1600-h/IMG_0505.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 322px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 287px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5366601953010065154" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SnoACvQVHwI/AAAAAAAAAcY/lUyy3Wtr_Zs/s400/IMG_0505.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This was our first visit to the Big island. We have visited Maui and Oahu, but this was really different, no beaches, just volcanic rock. When you fly in it looks almost as if you have landed on the moon.

In total the villa has five bedrooms and four bathrooms as well as two large offices on a lower level.

We have spent the first week settling back into a different routine, We have also enjoyed catching up with all our close friends and our children and grandchildren. We are amazed at how much the grandchildren have grown up in just that short time.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now we are very busy putting everything in place for our return trip to Spain. The current plan is to go to England to visit family and friends around the middle of August. We are shipping a car over to England and then we will drive it down to Spain, where we have leased a fabulous villa for nine months from September 1st. We are expecting quite a few of our family, friends and business partners to come and stay with us.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;What a thrill it is to be able to carry our business back and forth with us, and to c&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SBy1lkjndVI/AAAAAAAAAMw/Vh_0oM9q1es/s1600-h/La+Caleta+Villa+012.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196227727151560018" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SBy1lkjndVI/AAAAAAAAAMw/Vh_0oM9q1es/s200/La+Caleta+Villa+012.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;hoose to focus on expanding into the UK and Europe!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;We are including a couple of pictures of the pool and the view of &lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SBy1lUjndUI/AAAAAAAAAMo/XAWLQfPBn_0/s1600-h/La+Caleta+Villa+001.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196227722856592706" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SBy1lUjndUI/AAAAAAAAAMo/XAWLQfPBn_0/s200/La+Caleta+Villa+001.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;the Mediterraneon and also the villa, to whet everyone's appetite!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7484767338410441842-6426379568528805583?l=twohappybrits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://twohappybrits.blogspot.com/feeds/6426379568528805583/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7484767338410441842&amp;postID=6426379568528805583' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7484767338410441842/posts/default/6426379568528805583'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7484767338410441842/posts/default/6426379568528805583'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://twohappybrits.blogspot.com/2008/05/back-home-in-los-angeles.html' title='Back Home in Los Angeles'/><author><name>Two Happy Brits</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12055895318681867071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/S6IBwG1VIJI/AAAAAAAAAjY/JKPJ-OnAW5g/S220/Cancun+2007+010.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SBy1lkjndVI/AAAAAAAAAMw/Vh_0oM9q1es/s72-c/La+Caleta+Villa+012.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7484767338410441842.post-3800445690325284327</id><published>2008-05-03T11:27:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-05-03T11:44:05.989-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Conference in Rome March 31st to April 5th.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvl0jndQI/AAAAAAAAAMI/7prbFcOYdKs/s1600-h/Rome+2008+8.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196221134376760578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvl0jndQI/AAAAAAAAAMI/7prbFcOYdKs/s200/Rome+2008+8.bmp" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Although we were reluctant to leave our villa in Spain, we were so excited to go to Rome for a Company Conference, and the opportunity to spend time with nearly 1000 of our closest friends! It was not our first visit to Rome so we were able to be selective about which of the many monuments and sights to see. Last time it was so hot that we realy did not have the strength to take a tour of the Coliseum, but this time as you can see from the coats we are wearing, we did not have that problem.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvmEjndRI/AAAAAAAAAMQ/T8li8JXzElc/s1600-h/Rome+2008+6.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196221138671727890" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvmEjndRI/AAAAAAAAAMQ/T8li8JXzElc/s200/Rome+2008+6.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; It was an enjoyable contrast to switch from eating Spanish style cooking to Italian, which is, of course, wonderful. We were fortunate to have dinner with our keynote speaker, a very special young man , Shawn Achor, who is a Harvard professor at age 30 and teaches the most popular course there on the psychology of happiness. Here we are with him, looking a bit like "munchkins"!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvmEjndSI/AAAAAAAAAMY/D_LTSmh6JTE/s1600-h/Rome+2008+2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196221138671727906" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvmEjndSI/AAAAAAAAAMY/D_LTSmh6JTE/s200/Rome+2008+2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; The conference included quite a bit of partying, and here we are at the welcome party ready to have lots of fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvmkjndTI/AAAAAAAAAMg/NA31xsWsYb4/s1600-h/Toga+party+3.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5196221147261662514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/SByvmkjndTI/AAAAAAAAAMg/NA31xsWsYb4/s200/Toga+party+3.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; The final Gala was a toga party instead of the usual black tie event. It was a huge success and everyone let down there hair. As you can see Roger could not quite let go of it not being black tie. Here we are with our good friends from New York, Karen and Ron. Just imagine, we get to spend time all over the world with these and many other friends.

Our first port of call was to Puerto Banus. This is where you can really see "abundance". The sheer size and quantity of magnificent yachts was breathtaking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_Qq1F5lSI/AAAAAAAAAIE/sQ0WDYmmi4g/s1600-h/marbella+4.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174583931096896802" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_Qq1F5lSI/AAAAAAAAAIE/sQ0WDYmmi4g/s200/marbella+4.bmp" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; You can see Suzanne standing by just one or two of the small ones.. The weather was perfect and the cars were incredible, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Bentleys, in fact the Mercedes and Porsches were quite commonplace! All around the port are every upmarket store you could think of and beautiful restaurants, one after another.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_Qq1F5lTI/AAAAAAAAAIM/6xvjt9Y94-8/s1600-h/marbella+2.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174583931096896818" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_Qq1F5lTI/AAAAAAAAAIM/6xvjt9Y94-8/s200/marbella+2.bmp" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Our next stop was in old town Marbella, the ancient district. Here you can see one of many pretty little streets with potted plants all the way along outside the houses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_QrVF5lUI/AAAAAAAAAIU/X-ABH-klFlU/s1600-h/marbella.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174583939686831426" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_QrVF5lUI/AAAAAAAAAIU/X-ABH-klFlU/s200/marbella.bmp" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This is Orange Square in the heart of the old district where the aroma of orange blossom is quite overpowering. We sat here outside and had lunch with the most  impeccable service and delicious food.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_QrlF5lVI/AAAAAAAAAIc/uZBfwjLdX_E/s1600-h/marbella+5.bmp"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174583943981798738" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_QrlF5lVI/AAAAAAAAAIc/uZBfwjLdX_E/s200/marbella+5.bmp" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Of course we had paella, what else?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7484767338410441842-2790592813731146487?l=twohappybrits.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://twohappybrits.blogspot.com/feeds/2790592813731146487/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7484767338410441842&amp;postID=2790592813731146487' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7484767338410441842/posts/default/2790592813731146487'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7484767338410441842/posts/default/2790592813731146487'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://twohappybrits.blogspot.com/2008/03/day-out-in-marbella.html' title='A Day Out in Marbella'/><author><name>Two Happy Brits</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12055895318681867071</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/S6IBwG1VIJI/AAAAAAAAAjY/JKPJ-OnAW5g/S220/Cancun+2007+010.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8_QpFF5lRI/AAAAAAAAAH8/R09UnQQVmMQ/s72-c/marbella3.bmp' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7484767338410441842.post-9206031073544194086</id><published>2008-02-23T03:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-23T03:45:29.836-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Brits go to Ronda</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8AEdkuuzAI/AAAAAAAAAHU/gQhNBU_5yJ8/s1600-h/IMG_0088.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5170137278343728130" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8AEdkuuzAI/AAAAAAAAAHU/gQhNBU_5yJ8/s200/IMG_0088.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; We decided to go up to Ronda which is a very old town high up in the hills above Marbella. It was beautifully sunny but rather cold. Here is Suzanne in front of the fountain in the square.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8AEd0uuzBI/AAAAAAAAAHc/zHP_0ZjKovE/s1600-h/IMG_0095.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5170137282638695442" style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_Wmv3TYpNnO4/R8AEd0uuzBI/AAAAAAAAAHc/zHP_0ZjKovE/s200/IMG_0095.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Ronda boasts one of the oldest and most prestigious bullrings in the world. At this time of the year we were able to explore the whole complex and actually go into the arena.
