Back in the UK. Car collected from the meet and greet parking and we are en route home. This ends the vacation. #BGS_GC26
Time to engage airplane mode. See you on the other side. #BGS_GC26
We are on a plane. Next stop is Manchester and we should be taking off in 10 minutes. #BGS_GC26
Our taxi driver was the same glam Spanish woman who picked us up when we arrived. She was lovely and wined us a safe journey, then asked when we’re coming back. We told her at the end of January and she said she’ll be waiting for us again. I almost burst into tears. Almost. Anyway, we’re waiting for our flight having done the new biometric registration thing which has come in. #BGS_GC26
In the taxi and almost at the airport. Homeward bound and feeling ready to face reality. #BGS_GC26

Taking a last mooch around the locale and stopped off for soft drinks at a place we came to on our first ever visit at the end of 2014. It sticks with us as there were Christmas decorations up as it was New Year, and that seemed so otherworldly; Santa’s face against the dunes and palm trees.

Anyway, we have a lot of history here which is good.

Suitcase 99% packed. Time to shower and freshen up then I can pack the last few things. Checkout is midday, and we have a taxi to the airport booked for 13:30 as we fly at 16:10. Better get on with things! #BGS_GC26
I’ll miss all of this but will carry it with me until we come back next year. *sighs* Happy/sad vibes but way more happy than sad. We have more adventures planned and this is only the start of the year. #BGS_GC26

Slept well and am refreshed. The heating back home is gently warming the house so it should be cosy when we arrive around midnight tonight.

Time to get on with packing and organising so we can have a smooth getaway. After breakfast though, of course. #BGS_GC26

We saw the sun set on our holiday. Cheers all; it’s been amazing. Thanks for joining the adventure via Mastodon. #BGS_GC26
