My friend Carol and I decided to have a short break at the seaside for a few days. We made a reservation at a hostel in South Wales where the prices were very reasonable. We were looking forward to a few days of sunbathing, seeing the sights and eating delicious food. However, it turned out that the hostel was in a very remote location with no beaches, cafes or facilities nearby. Seeing the heavy rain, we headed home the following day.

Seaside break

Ayer SpanisHolidays “se vistió de etiqueta”. Este modismo lo utilizamos para indicar que alguien o algo se adapta a una situación en la que se requiere formas, protocolo y elegancia. No es que fuera a la ópera, no. Si no que por primera vez, lo presenté en una feria de turismo: el B-Travel, que es un encuentro internacional en Barcelona, del sector del turismo en  el que instituciones, países e iniciativas privadas presentan a sus países, y también exponen empresas de gestión turística en un espacio común.
