Etter en sommer som ikke alltid har vært fantastisk i Norge dette året ser jeg virkelig frem til å reise ned igjen til Spania om noen uker. Familie og venner har gitt oppløftende rapporter om at hagen er frodigere enn noen gang før, så nå gleder jeg meg veldig til å komme ned!
After a summer full of variations in weather and temperatures in Norway this year, I am really looking forwards to go down to our Spanish holiday home again in a few weeks time. Family and friends borrowing the place have reported that our garden never have been lusher, so now I am really eager to get on the plane! Unfortunately I will still have to wait a few weeks...

Hoved grunnen til å reise ned denne gangen er for å forsøke å selge et hus vi har i en liten middelalderby kalt Villajoyosa. Der har vi en 4 etasjers bygning på strandpromenaden, bygget en gang på 1700 tallet. Hele strandpaviljongen og parken foran huset er pusset opp og vi har fått veldig mange oppløftende tilbakemeldinger nå som byen er ferdige med dette arbeidet, så vi er veldig spente på å se det med egne øyne.
Bildet nedenfor er tatt fra en av husets 3 balkonger. Den gang var det vei mellom oss og stranden. Nå er det hele gjort om til parkområde med underjordisk parkering - altså ingen biltrafikk.
We are going to Spain to prepare the sale of a historic house we own on the beach of a medieval town called Villajoyosa. The whole beach in front of our house has been modernised. The picture below is from prior to the modernisation, when there was a drive way and parking between our house and the beach. Today this is transformed to green areas, walkways and underground parking, meaning no longer any kind of car traffic in front of the building (There was very little traffic on the beach before anyway.)
We are very excited to go down and see the transformation!
Et annet større prosjekt vi skal ned for å planlegge vedrører eiendommen vi bor på. Vi ønsker å rive muren foran det nye og gamle huset og utvide terrassen 4,5 meter fremover, (Der som det nå er vei på bildet ) slik at vi får garasje og en liten gjesteleilighet for besøkende familie og venner. VKlatreplantene kommer til å bli flyttet før denne jobben tar til.
Another big project we are going to plan; our main home down there have a narrow stripe of terrasse in front of our two houses. We plan to expand this with 4,5 meters so that we get a terrasse in front of these - and garage + a small guest apartment for visiting friends and family. The climbers will be moved before starting on this project.
