Snow - Yes it's true


Heavy snowfalls across the Valencia region yesterday led to a fall in local maximum temperatures of 21 degrees over just two weeks.Several side roads were blocked by the snowfall and chains were needed on part of the main National network in L’Alcoiá, El Comtat and La Foia. Some 10,000 schoolchildren celebrated a day off school as the snow reached as far as the Cabecó d’Or mountain near Alicante. Banyeres saw a low of -2 degrees.Three ferries between Denia and the Balearics were cancelled because of the weather, while more than 70 litres of rain was recorded in Denia and Javea.

And from my desk in the office here in Benidorm, the view of the snow-topped mountains is fantastic!!

Prices going up


Polaris World, creator of golfing resorts in Murcia, announced last week that prices would be increasing by as much as 7% on a number of their off-plan resorts, namely Terazas de La Torre and Condado de Alhama. Both of these resorts are still some two years or more from completion with only very basic ground work having taken place so far but for those that bought in early, I am sure it will prove to be a good investment in the long term. Sales are still very strong at these resorts where prices start at 118.000 Euros for a two bedroom apartment.
