Hmm, it looks as though my cryptic tongue in cheek was too dry and 
obscure. My apologies.

When I wrote that it looked as though the economic recession had really hit  
Spain, I was 
Not hinting that shapely women could not afford clothes
Not hinting that Nathan or his work were siphoning off Euro taxes for their 
own enjoyment.

I did see a lot of white plastic churning the ocean into froth; or just sitting 
and 
reflecting the sunlight. And it all looked like fairly new plastic. Not a sign 
of 
hard times.

So I should have written ....it looked as though the economic recession had 
really hit  Spain -  n o t !!

Great photos, and I do enjoy seeing pics of a place I visited in 1961 when I 
left a completed forestry study tour at Mimizan-plage in the south of France 
and took off on my own to explore this foreign country and a language I did 
not understand, for a couple of weeks until my hard-earned student money 
ran out and I had to scram back to my college in England.

I think Alicante was as far south as I got, and it was little more than a hot 
dry 
village then.. nearly deserted, and served by one daily motor-coach. I 
watched the locals go out into the nearly barren hills early in the morning to 
tend their olives and what else grew in the parched hills.  I might even have 
some Kodachromes ..  The days of my Practica FX.

Cheers   Brian Swale.
