    I've been visiting Playa flamenca/Orihuela for ten years now. Beautiful place, always sad to leave it.

      Hi Janny, we are not big fans of "The Ant Bridge" as you can probably tell but it is better than trying to cross that road and roundabout on foot. Thanks for watching and for your comment. Best wishes, Mike and Yvonne.

    Great video as usual, guys. Loved the drone footage around their house. We are neighbours as our apartment is around the corner on the other side of the canal. We will have to say hello if we bump into them. Keep up the great work.

    Evening Mike & Yvonne, this video brought back some nice memories of our travels around the area, visiting beaches such as playa flamenca. My wife does enjoy an "Ackworth mooch!" Around La Zenia and the abundant shops in there! Adios from Morpeth, Northumberland, 3 2 1 ping !

    Great to see you both the other day in Torrevieja and then to see you both again later was just unbelievable twice in one afternoon.
    The sundial was built off centre and was incorrectly measured.
    I remembered the press article about it.
    As with all your videos another great one in the can as they say.
