Holiday Village, Costa Del Sol, Spain





So we got our rent a car which was ridiculously small!  Of course when Kimo and the boys saw it all they did was complain until I made them get in because I wasn't about to go back and stand in line for a bigger car. 
 We loaded up and squeezed in the car with our 5 suitcases and 2 bags and drove down the costal highway until we reached the Elephant round-about!  Tahdah!  We reached our Hotel and checked in to our room on the 5th floor only to find a strong poop smell when we opened the door.  I just thought it needed some airing out but unfortunately the smell got stronger and woke me up at 1am feeling nauseated.  We were all feeling sick! So I headed down stairs found the Spainish guy who didn't speak or understand English very well and asked him to come upstairs to see if he could tell us what the smell was.  Very long story short we sat in the lobby at 2am with all our luggage and moved to a different room over night and the next morning we moved back up to a room with a view on the 3rd floor without the poop smell.  So 3 rooms in less then 24 hours.  Not a good way to start off your holiday!   Especially when there was more drama with drunk people going on in the hotel:)
