Mum had a serious stroke last week. My dad was in the St John&#8217;s Ambulance for years and knows his first aid, he saw the signs immediately and called 999. He nursed mum until the paramedics arrived and took her to the Queen&#8217;s Medical Centre in Nottingham. The information we can get from this point is a little limited. Dad&#8217;s lung disease means no-one wants him to go to the QMC where COVID-19 is obviously prevalent, so he has to rely on them calling him once a day, or he spends hours trying to get through to the ward on the phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A specialist has spent time on the phone with Dad a couple of times and, after being asked to give the news straight, has made it clear mum isn&#8217;t coming back to us, despite an emergency operation, several scans and, I fully expect, the very best treatment our NHS can provide. He said she hasn&#8217;t regained any form of consciousness, and isn&#8217;t aware of what is happening around her, which is a huge blessing. We&#8217;re all now waiting. Thankfully, Dad can take care of himself (cooking, cleaning, driving, finances etc), and he has support from a lot of fantastic people back home, including my sister and her wonderful family who live nearby. Dad, I love you more than you can ever know, you&#8217;re such an inspiration to me and I&#8217;m so grateful for everything you and mum have given me, all the sacrifices you made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-1030x475.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-38824\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-1030x475.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-768x354.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-1536x709.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-2048x945.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-1500x692.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-705x325.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201107_122144534_HDR-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><figcaption>We were due to run the M\u00e1laga half marathon in the spring. After it was first postponed and then cancelled, they changed it to a virtual run. Ju has completed hers and received her medal, T shirt and wind-vest this week.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Out here Ju has been brilliant for me. The shock and grief of what has happened is hitting us both, of course, but she&#8217;s sorted all the logistics to get us home. After thinking it through as best we can, we&#8217;ve opted to fly home next Monday (a lot of flights are cancelled at the moment). The mechanic who was going to come to the site and look at the wheel didn&#8217;t show, on two occasions. So we&#8217;ve now run out of time and emotional capacity for getting it fixed, we&#8217;ll sort it in the future. It could be a sign, as we probably don&#8217;t want to be driving half way across Europe in a state of grief, potentially being stopped by police to justify our journey at all the closed municipal and regional borders. Andalusia announced further restrictions to try and control COVID-19 on Sunday, closing off the borders between towns for any non-essential activity, which means we can still get to M\u00e1laga airport (about 30 miles away and across several new borders) but we can&#8217;t come back until these restrictions are eased.  Leaving Zagan here will also give us a mental lift of knowing we should be able to fly back some weeks\/months in the future and either retrieve the van at our leisure, or spend a few months here in the winter\/spring of 2021, if fate decides to allow it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-1030x475.jpg\" alt=\"A powered paraglider breaking the silence above Playa Playazo\" class=\"wp-image-38822\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-1030x475.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-768x354.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-1536x708.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-2048x944.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-1500x692.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-705x325.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201108_152320-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><figcaption>A powered paraglider breaking the silence above Playa Playazo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll store the van at the campsite we&#8217;re on, which is fenced with a locked gate and long-termers living on site (other vans are stored here). Safeguard were very good, trying to find a way to keep the underwriters insuring the van, but since we&#8217;ve no idea how long it will be before we can return they won&#8217;t cover it while we&#8217;re away. We&#8217;ve taken this risk before with Dave, our previous van, getting <a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/africa-were-in\/\">3rd party insurance in a few non-EU countries<\/a>. It&#8217;s one reason we choose older vans, to keep the potential financial hit of not being able to claim on insurance down in these unusual situations. Not ideal, but none of this is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-1030x475.jpg\" alt=\"The view from the van door, Cortijo de San Miguel Campsite, Nerja\" class=\"wp-image-38823\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-1030x475.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-768x354.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-1536x708.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-2048x944.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-1500x692.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-705x325.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201111_091015-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><figcaption>This morning&#8217;s view from the van door, Cortijo de San Miguel Campsite, Nerja<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re grateful to be in such a beautiful place to receive such dark news. My poor Dad has to relay the latest information, each day worse than the last, and the days are spent checking the phone for messages, in a growing sense of dread. We&#8217;re enormously thankful for the scenery around us. The lapping pure waters of the Med, the vivid lush vegetation, the mountains, whitewashed Moor-inspired villas and the pale blue skies, they all make it just a bit easier to hear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nerja is very, very quiet now. Many hotels and some restaurants and shops are closed. The beaches are nigh-on empty, just the odd kayak being calmly paddled along or a lone swimmer or snorkeler disturbing the water. The poor guys selling handbags and belts on the beaches have no business, we bought a &#8216;branded&#8217; facemask from one of them to help a tiny bit. The <em>chiringuito<\/em> (a sort of very informal restaurant) by the beach is still open, with the tables outside and spaced apart, just a QR code instead of paper menus, so we&#8217;ve been in for paella and deep fried aubergine with cane honey, enjoying a slight sense of normality for an hour.  Once we&#8217;re home we&#8217;ll be quarantined in four walls and a small courtyard. We&#8217;re grateful for our safe bolt-hole, but we&#8217;re not looking forward to <a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/day-one-in-covid-19-preventative-isolation\/\">another two weeks locked in<\/a>. We have each another though. Also, my folks and millions like them have shielded without leaving their homes for months and we always knew this would happen if we came back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-1030x475.jpg\" alt=\"Closed Businesses at Playa Burriana\" class=\"wp-image-38826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-1030x475.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-768x354.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-1536x709.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-2048x945.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-1500x692.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-705x325.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_162041462_HDR-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><figcaption>Closed businesses at Playa Burriana. The ice cream place was open though, serving gelato-style ice cream, very rich and creamy, delicious. Good job it&#8217;s a 5 mile walk there and back!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve had root canal treatment and I was very grateful the dentists were still working through this stage of the pandemic. I went three times, each time being greeted by Brigitte, the highly efficient English-speaking receptionist, head-to-toe in PPE. Each time she did a temperature check before letting me in, got me to sanitize my hands and popped me alone into the waiting room (which had an outside balcony so I sat on that). Once in the chair it felt odd taking my mask off, especially being so close to people and indoors. They&#8217;ve a special mouthwash which kills the virus. The root canal treatment was painless and thorough, but didn&#8217;t half throw a lot of material into the air. I feel certain I don&#8217;t have the virus, but they don&#8217;t know that and one of the dentists was in her 60s, I think. They gave me a temporary filling and I was due to get a crown impression taken later, but we&#8217;d decided to head home to support Dad as best we can, so there&#8217;s no time to make the crown. They have given me a new permanent filling, and strict instructions to not eat anything hard on it until it has a crown, or it may snap again. I&#8217;m really pleased as it means I don&#8217;t have to worry about my teeth while we&#8217;re in quarantine, or having to try and get an appointment quickly once we&#8217;re allowed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-1030x475.jpg\" alt=\"The apartment complexes above Playa Burriana, Nerja\" class=\"wp-image-38821\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-1030x475.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-768x354.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-1536x708.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-2048x944.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-1500x692.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-705x325.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_20201110_150819-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><figcaption>The apartment complexes above Playa Burriana, Nerja (the dentist surgery is a short walk away)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When we packed for this trip we brought most of our clothes into the van, including much of our winter gear, as we might have visited friends in the mountains on our way home in the spring. We don&#8217;t bring suitcases with us, as they&#8217;re too bulky. After eyeballing the prices for luggage on Ryanair and trying to guess how much we need to take, we&#8217;ve opted for a 10kg carry-on bag each, in addition to the tiny bag you&#8217;re allowed with the cheapest tickets (\u00a375 for both of us). Ju&#8217;s been to the local market and bought a case made to the exact dimensions the airlines require. We have a few small rucksacks, so will use them for the rest of our stuff. We&#8217;ll wear our winter coats to travel, and may need to buy some clothes at home to keep us going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve a taxi booked from the campsite to M\u00e1laga airport (\u20ac66), and are flying into East Midlands in the UK, where we plan to take an Uber home (\u00a330). We&#8217;ll switch the fridge on and get a fire going and have arranged a Sainsbury&#8217;s delivery for the following day, so we&#8217;ll have plenty of food with which to sit out our quarantine. With Dad shielding, the need to self-isolate and the UK in lockdown, our physical presence in the UK won&#8217;t be of much use, but if the worst comes to the worst, we will be legally able to attend a funeral even in the quarantine period. We&#8217;ll bring our laptops home, so can continue working on our next book, a welcome distraction and focus at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, that&#8217;s it. Everyone on earth will know this, but for when I read this back in future: the positive news at this point is that at least one vaccine appears to work, and could potentially start being rolled out in December 2020. The various forms of restrictions across Europe seem to be starting to bring the surging second wave under control. Large-scale rapid testing has begun back home, soon to be available in our native Nottinghamshire, which might also help. It seems there is light at the end of the Covid-19 tunnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We might go quiet now for a while as we get through this, or we might blog to distract ourselves. We wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has been in touch with such kind words of support. There have been so many that we&#8217;ve been unable to respond to each of you. They are hard to read at times, but they do really mean a lot to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jay<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Update &#8211; Jay&#8217;s Mum sadly passed away that afternoon.
