Day 7 – Rest Day and Goodbye Spanish Party
After a long and busy week together, it is sad to see that the end is near. So we have thought that you would just feel like doing nothing, all day relaxing near your swimming pool while the children would be playing with their new friends, enjoying life in this amazing rural house. Here, the cold beer tastes even better than usual. But it’s not over yet – time for party.
We have an amazing farewell party for everybody. A professional jamón cutter will come to en-light us with this typical Spanish art.
We are proud of our typical tapas, which we are willing to share with you.
And of course, we can’t forget that Murcia is well known for its indescribable wine. So there would be a wine tasting at the disposal of our guests. For sure, we have not forgotten the children, for whom we have organized a karaoke with party lights and games.
