Weekend in Santa Ponca
Discussion
When I was 8, in 1969, my parents bought an apartment in Santa Ponsa in the only block there (a new one then). Apart from that there were two shops, a bar, one hotel and a beach bar. I must have gone to Santa Ponsa probably ten to twleve times up until I was 13. What a difference in that last photo!!!!

Assuming the 2nd photo was from a hotel window, and there was a Chinese over the road to the left....
There's a bar around the left from the taxi rank that does great cocktails.
Sky there is phenomenal (not just the bar, Santa Ponca generally).

Correct!
The amazing sky was one of the things I had heard about it before I went.
I really like "light trails" pictures, but as i had no tripod with me, I was limited to placing camera on the balcony wall or the floor..

I had my first trip abroad at the same time, with a schoolfriend and his parents who had an apartment. In fact I checked your profile to see you weren't him! The only restaurant I remember was El Papagayo, which means parrot I think.thatone1967 said:
That's it! Great place.... the local spelt it Santa Ponca, so assumed that this was correct?
They're Spanish, the only word they can spell is 'scorchio'.Edited by Simpo Two on Thursday 14th October 10:46
