Hi everyone,
Returned to Mansfield on 28th May after two weeks in PB. This was our fourth visit and certainly the quietest, especially the first week (was told things are slow in May anyway). Exellent food and service in the usual haunts- La Bocaina, Almacen de la Sal and Brisa Marina, although we were the only ones in the Bocaina. The best meal, however was at the Chinese at Faro Park (in the line of shops) where we had a set meal for two (nobody else in there either). The owner feared that if things didn't pick up, she would have to close and move back to Hong Kong.
On the plus side the daytime weather was sunny and warm but chilly in the evenings with a cold wind .
(jumper required). We stayed in a villa in the Las Margaritas area, so only ten minute walk into town.
In the second week had a drive to PDC (first time there) where it seemed to be a lot bigger and busier than PB. Tried to find Spenders (we've heard a lot about it) asked around but to no avail-gave up in the end.
On the last night we went to the Irish Anvil to watch European Cup final (a special treat for Carol you undersstand).
All in all another great holiday in Lanzarote-can't wait to come back.

Marvellous pictures Rick, looked like you had really good weather!

Thanks all for the kind words about the photos.

@ Dave - Weather was fab. 30+ every day and NO wind...except for the last day.

Really wish I was there now.

Hi Rick,

Really enjoyed the photos, thanks.

We have lived in PB for four years and it is great to see that others appreciate it as much as we do. Hope you make it back soon!

Hi Allan. I love the place. I would love to live out there also but that's not going to happen for a while due to the impending arrival of my first child in October.

I'll just have to keep dreaming for now.
