Three more Locsins in Alicante

After a marathon day of picking up loose ends such as getting new health cards, registering for Spanish language classes, visiting two banks, setting up doctor appointments and such, we took the train to Murcia del Carmen to meet Shannon, John and Jordan.  They had landed this morning in Madrid and were met by our good friend Celia who took them across the city after getting them discounted train tickets and put them on the train headed our way.  They were as "knackered" as we were, having spent 28 hours in transit.  We did over 26, but that is another story or rant, to be done later.
So, we dragged them onto another train (to Callosa) where we loaded their substantial baggage and drove to Algorfa.  They crashed, I changed four bike tires and set up a bike for Shan, then we went out for dinner at the hotel up on La Finca hill, as it's called.
Thank you, Celia, for guiding them through the pitfalls of traversing Madrid while in a sleep-deprived stupor.  We are all in your debt!
