Boxing day 2015

We all enjoyed a Christmas day in Spain, the Catalan food is quite different to French food but very enjoyable. We went for coffee at the Parador at Aquablava, which is very smart and in super position looking out to sea. Got back to the Llevant at Llfranc and Jill like us prefers this hotel. Wonderful artwork on the walls, worth climbing the stairs to see even more, lovely persian rugs everywhere giving a homely touch. The beginning of this year they had a "relooking" and although at first I liked it the way we remembered it I am begin to like the look.
It is the only hotel full and busy in Llafranc and people round about in apartments booked their Christmas dinner here.
Dogs are allowed but not in the restaurant and by the time dogs have had runs on the beach  and play fights they are happy to collapse on their own beds in the room.
Today we are off to Cadaques to the sea side home of Salvador Dali. We have been to the Dali musuem at Figueras but this will be  first, for one of his houses.
Enjoy your boxing day everyone. How benevoles will explain boxing day to the lads I  do not know.
