Still driving down through France and Spain but staying in a hotel as it was cheaper or as cheap as the camp sites but when you take into account fuel consumption towinga trailer, extra tolls in Farnce (50% extra witha trailer) and the extra ferry fare it is cheaper to stay in a hotel. We have booked into the Club Praia du Rocha. On the Sunday after the last game we are driving to Pau in the Pyrennes and staying there for 4 days then a 1 day drive (est 9 hours) to Calais on Friday.

Sounds fantastic, we are just flying this year but if Brighton go again next year, my son and i are considering going on motorbikes.

go to zoomarine great day out very fun and old town albufiera I preferred it to the new town its so much more relaxed and some great little places to eat

Stayed in Old town last year and i am again this year, i only spent one day in the New Town last year but i didn't think it was nearly as good. Maybe New Town is more for the youngsters.

We are looking forward to it as both wife and I love driving especially abroad where you can drive and stop as you wish a lot better than you can in this country. After my cancer op in 95 we drove to Greece and then took a ferry to Cyprus and stayed for 3 months the came back and started life again in another pub. It was absolutely fantastic

go to zoomarine great day out very fun

Zoomarine is fun but a warning ... I've never felt so sick or dizzy after going on a ride - the swinging boats - I couldn't drive afterwards!
