Costa del Sol (Alfa, St. Petersburg)

We are back from our trip! And the weather in St. Petersburg is by no means happy, now we are sitting and remembering sunny days by the sea and analyzing 3000 photographs.

True, the beginning of our family vacation was rather difficult, as soon as the vacation was confirmed for my spouse, we rushed to hastily apply for a visa for our son. In St. Petersburg, visas are mostly done through the Finnish embassy, ​​but I don’t know how legal it is ... going to the nearest Finland in the summer is like going to a dacha, only to buy goods not in a general store, but in supermarkets, and not for rubles, but for euro... In general, while we were puzzled which country to go to and where to apply for a visa for our son without a Schengen, we were walking through the shopping center and were caught by the promoters of the Russian network of tour operators Alfa. Right to the point they caught how they felt that we were on vacation! Although the husband is tense, he even avoids promoters with free samples of cosmetics and products.

So, with the help of a chance meeting with the promoters of the tour operator Alfa, we ended up in the office of the company, more precisely in its St. Petersburg branch on Greek 12. By the way, it turned out there that the tour operator Alfa also provides visa support. We decided to go to Spain! Even before the birth of a child, we went to Ibiza, but we decided not to choose a party and pretentious island. The child needs somewhere quieter. We chose the Costa del Sol. They survived the flight normally, at the airport upon arrival they were really confused, they did not immediately find a meeting person and were terribly nervous. But these nerves compensated for the beaches, our hotel and entertainment. We even went to discos when our son fell asleep. We were fed large portions, but monotonous. Therefore, they got jamon, wine and melons in shops. Yes! Be sure to take sunscreen! It's very expensive!!! I went broke for 12 euros for a cream that costs 280 rubles.

Russian tourists, which was important for us, were few and well-bred with children! My compatriots made me happy. But the Basques ... just like our Caucasians ... In general, apart from the nerves upon arrival and unrest and monotonous (not bad, but!) Food, and some vacationers who were noisy in the bar all the time, we had a good time. It’s a pity we didn’t manage to get to Barca and Madrid ... Another time, you see. Guys from the Russian Alpha, tell the Spaniards about the diet for the Russians!))) Let them diversify!
