Tram to Alicante

First we drove to El Campello, where we would park our car for the day.  After parking, we went straight to that bank I mentioned before because after all, today is a Thursday, the time was between 8 and 10:30 and the date was the 10th. So, it was bill paying time!  We paid our little 20 cent bill, and then went to the tram station, bought our tickets and waited for the tram to Alicante.
Very nice ride to Alicante, with some WONDERFUL views of beaches and coastline.  We got off at the last stop on the line, which was near to where we wanted to be.  We wanted to go to a book store we had heard about to see if they had a Swedish dictionary.  They didn't have that, but they recommended we go up a few blocks to a store that is across from a language school.  Nothing in Swedish there, either.  Our next stop was a Coop store that we had seen on one of our previous trips into Alicante with the car.  As we walked to that store, we saw that a bunch of young people were gathering close to the school with signs, so it looked like there was going to be a demonstration.  We went on to the Coop and we found stuff there to make hot chocolate which is what we had been looking for and we even found Almond milk there, too!  So, we ended up buying a few things.
From there, we walked back up to the main street and there were the students, marching up the street hollering and waving their signs.  We never could figure out what they were demonstrating against.
We stopped at a little cafe and had a snack of croissant, tuna empanada and coke.  Then we walked over to Alicante's big market and that also was amazing.  We may skip El Campello's market one of these days and take the tram over to Alicante instead to do our weekly market trip.  We were very impressed with that market.
Then, we looked for a place to have a few tapas for lunch, got back on the tram and headed back to El Campello and drove home.  We thoroughly enjoyed that trip to Alicante and want to do it again soon.
