weather and temps.

Things started getting a bit rough here last night. We had waves breaking over the wall above the beach and the water got to within 3 metres of our van. So this morning we took the Safari Room down and moved to another pitch away from the beach. We had a nice sea view but didn't want to risk damage to our home. Took 3½ hours to dismantle, move and set up again.

Still been quite blustery today as forcast and cool. It is 18:00 local and we are down to 10°c again.

We are booked on here until end of April John, otherwise we may have been tempted. We will probably be down that way next winter though.

Sorry to hear about your problems with the safari room - hope all is well now. Max temp. here today was 24 Celcius, with no wind at all. Can recommend both the area and the campsite (if you don't mind being remote in the middle of a National Park and a kilometre away from the beach, which is reached by walking along the side of a lagoon with flamingoes on it - bliss!).
 
Weather and temps

On Wednesday night I was in Glasgow working and the ground temperature was minus 16 goodness knows what the wind chill temperature was, at one point I lost all the feeling in my hands as I was securing a load of gas cylinders before returning to the depot in Irlam. I was glad to get back. The following night I was in London and the temperature was plus 1.
 
Since my last post, the weather in Almeria has been glorious (apart from one morning's rain) with daytime temperatures into the twenties and night-time temperatures around 10 (lowest 7). Skies blue, air and sea calm - Christmas and New Year on the beach. Happy new year to all.

Same here John

We found out awning canopy full of water yesterday after the rain. It was sloped but must have had too much rain to cope and bellied in. Fortunately it was OK when I dipped it further and pushed it up from inside.

There were quite a few taking a New Year dip in the sea at noon on New Years day arranged by the Dutch on site. We have just come through Cantaras 25°c here by the sea it is 16.7°c It was quite warm last night.

I also acquired an Orange dongle, about 15 months ago. It is the only network with which I can get a signal at my base.
Basic cost was £15 GBP per month for 3 GB. on a rolling 30 day contract.
Deals may have changed.
As of 01/01/2011, I am on 10 GB. per month for £35 GBP.
