Yeah having a playground is ideal but we have not seen many restaurants here with a playground. Lately, it means we let her do some educational apps on the phone so we can eat in peace, lol.
I think the Alicante area is also quite expensive compared to here, but that's only from hear-say as I've never been up there in Spain. We will start exploring those areas once we have a car though, as I want to compare it myself, of course.
I admit that we have enjoyed a lot of tapas and restaurant visits since we arrived in June but it was a bit of catching up as we spend most of the months before due to prepping the emigration, sorting things, working our butts off etc. And it can be quite challenging having to work with 40 degrees all day, it really makes you want to leave the house at night and as everyone is eating late here, you simply start adjusting to that schedule slowly.
But playtime has come to an end with the kid attending school probably from Tuesday, getting back into full work mode during school hours, and also meal prepping again. Time to start saving these euros instead of spending them too often, lol.
