Well what a great week for the NHG ! Last Friday 15th March, we had a wonderful presentation about “Roman Almuñecar” by Elena Sanchez of Granada University.
The following Wednesday, Elena accompanied us and guided us in Almuñecar, showing us some of the monuments which she had told us of during her talk. We then finished our visit with a splendid lunch, in a beachside restaurant in Tamaray, Almuñecar.
Then the following Friday 22nd March, we had our annual lunch in Acebuchal. Since our last visit, there had been a fire due to a faulty fridge which destroyed the bar area and sadly, all the lovely old photo’s usually displayed around the walls. On the plus side, the whole area area and kitchen has been rebuilt. As usual, we had a wonderful lunch : freshly made bread with olive oil, a scrumptious salad and roasted green peppers followed by the signature dish of wild boar or chicken or wok veg. There was time to visit the little chapel and also the shop selling local produce – the homemade bread was also available to buy. It is always a good social event, an opportunity to catch up with chums who haven’t been seen for a while !
