TC Gang,
I will back Woody 100% on this. Benidorm is the greatest place for the dull, (OK, maybe that was just me) English-speaking person to ease himself/herself into the Euro party scene. I was a fresh-faced Navy lieutenant (j.g.) in June 1989 when I made my debut in European society off of USS America in Benidorm. The Brits there were fabulous and my high-school and college Spanish worked fabulously well. Of course, my Spanish stunk, but the locals were very forgiving and had run across a few "Hab-low E-span-yoles" before. I had the time of my life thanks to the ex-pat Brits and the wonderful Spaniards.

Glad you had a great time out there JTD. Yep, Benidorm is a blast. It has an incredibly cheesy side to it, and is a million miles away from the real Spain. But, the people of all ages are so laid back and friendly that you quickly get into the spirit of the place and have a blast.

(Saying that, the Wild Weekend is the reason to go, right?) That and the two Tiki bars in Benidorm!
