Christmas in Campoamor



We bought our holiday home in Campoamor three years ago and have spent two Christmas there. This years Christmas in contrast to the first was suprisingly inexpensive. We flew out on the 23rd and returned on 28th December with Ryan Air. The flight cost only £ 75.00 per person return.


During the last year a new shoping centre La Fuente has opened. It is only 10 minutes walk from our house. We booked our Christmas lunch at The Chrystal Restaurant at the centre. We were welcomed by a friendly staff and drink. The meal was excellant we were offered a choice of 4 items including the traditional meal. The service was excellant. The meal was relatively inexpensive for a Christmas meal. After the meal we could walk home without looking for the elusive taxi. Hooray there was no washing up.



The weather was pleasantly warm with the day temperature reaching 20 deg C. On Christmas day we had clear blue skies with a clear view of the Mar Menor and Las Manga strip from the house. The picture shows the view from the house on Christmas day
