194 Thu 5/10/17: Churreria Santa Faz, Alicante

Beer: Alhambra 5%

We tend to travel to the same places – and when we get to those places, we go to the same places. In Alicante, in our book, the place to go is Santa Faz.

On THIS visit… consulting my notes… yes, it’s late lunchtime and we’ve come back from the Museo de Hogueras and the Museo Volvo Ocean Race, both interesting in their own way. It’s our last day in Spain, and we have postcards to write. Elsewhere the bar is generally quite quiet – but we do get set on by an old fellow who has heard us talking, and wishes to practice his English by shouting it at us. I think he was a bit deaf. He didn’t tell us that, but did want to let us know that he was a supporter of FC Barcelona. Did we like football? Yes. He’d never heard of Luton Town, and when I held up four fingers to illustrate in which league our team resided he seemed less than impressed – and shuffled off.

We did the same. Our plan is to go to some more bars, have a little siesta, then come out again later.
