April 20th

Up late we started the day with a visit to a great seafood restaurant for breakfast, okay really lunch.  Grilled octopus and saffron haddock, not your normal breakfast fare but it worked for us.

We then set out to find the Royal Palace and instead found the Naval Museum.  A friend, David Nicholls told us about this place and we were glad we found it.  It was obvious, though, that the Spanish Naval Community held a grudge against the English however we loved the displays even though we couldn’t read any of the information. I can say that I am glad I wasn’t a sailor in those days.

We then set out in search of an English book shop.  We found it.  It is a shame that we have weight constraints on the way home because this is a great shop with some very old and rare books which we would have loved to buy.

It was then home for a pizza and red wine and a quite night reading because I can’t understand what they are saying on the TV.
