Bus Services from the Urb
I noticed the other day a new bus stop in the street behind us, (below Consume), but no bus time table, so wondered if anyone knew what buses stop there and times and will there be a bus from there to the beach.
The only problem with seeing a new bus stop,is that it was more than likely ordered a few years ago,Nobody hurries in Spain,Chances are it was cancelled a couple of years ago,so consequently it will be taken down at the end of 2012
Hi Alan, I have actually seen people using the bus stop, but I just want to know where the buses go to and times.
As I mentioned in another post We have even managed to get listed the times and stopping places for the summer bus that goes to the beach. http://lamarina.aspanishlife.com/topics/7-la-marina-subjects/articles/161-buses-to-la-marina-beach
However I was somewhat taken aback by there not being a Sunday service. A lot of people arrive on a Saturday and the next day would like to be able to go to the beach.
This morning even noticed on one Bus Stop an up to date list of when and where beach busses come and go. ONLY ONE PROBLEM bring steps with you or binoculars it is so high up that it just about or nealy readable. Bless them they tried.

Tourism
Do you or the Company you work for supply any services or diversions that would benefit tourists coming to the area. If so why dont you drop me a leaflet in at the office. We will assess the suitability and if positive, we would like to promote your enterprise.
Oh dear!
Our Jeff does not even speak English.
What on earth are Tourist Diversions?
Have you, Jeff, decided that we no longer need a Tourist Office?
Ah! I know, you have another PIPN candidate in the wings for an advisor position?
A Diversion is the use of one's time in such a manner, that is therapuetic, refreshing the mind and body, such diversions are often used to augment vacational activities and they are important in restoring the equilibrium between work and leisure for a healthy physical and mental condition.
We at the Town Hall are working together in order to improve all aspects of life in the area. Therefore we are only trying add to the good things that we already have.
I have been looking for activities that are not to far away and are reasonable priced for when our family come here on Wednesday for a month, with 5 grandchildren ranging from 3 years to 14 year old.
We noticed today that the little fun fair is back at the top of the urbanisation, so will definately take ther grandchildren there, as well as the one on the front in Alicante x
This was a shame as it seriously affected the exports of all the agricultural industry. I hope that now that its been highlighted and confirmed where it originated from the interest returns and gets the Spanish back up on their feet.
