I think I have probably met up with more people who are in Calis for the first time ever than anyone else (over the years) and I realised that there are 3 types of people.
1. People who love it at first sight
2. People who aren't in love with it but will soon be
3. People who aren't in love with it and never will be
The people in category 3 don't like the gravelly side roads, the cows next to the luxury villa, the hand written signs etc. What they wanted was Puerto Banus but don't want to pay Puerto Banus prices and leave disappointed. It's funny, the people in categories 1 and 2 far outnumber those in 3, and they like it because of the cows, the gravelly roads, the handwritten signs etc...
