Has anyone lived in Rota, Spain? That is one the areas we might be headed to, so any input would be great :)

That's my BIL's next duty station, so I can't be of any help now. Hopefully someone else has been there.

I know you PMed about this but I just saw you are in virginia Beach. I am in Norfolk and have a million pictures of our 3 years there. Anytime you want to see pictures of the area just let me know. I LOVED out time there and we are itching to get back!

I lived there for three years and I would kill to go back! I had the time of my life. My daughter was seven when we went there and ten when we returned and she just loved it! The people there are so friendly! Let me know if there is any specific questions I can answer for you.

My DH is itching to go back. He was there from 99- 01. I haven't stopped hearing about it in our 4 years together. Maybe we'll get back there one day! Apparently it's just awesome!

I LOVED our time there. It was a dream station. We were there from 2001 until Dec 2004. I was happy to get back to the states but miss it horrible. We hope to go back for our next duty and it will be DH's last duty station.

It is a little overwhelming when you first move there. It seems SOO foreign. It only took about a week to catch up on sleep and start touring around. DH was in the fire dept (part of air) and loved his work and time there. I tell everyone, if you get a chance to go, GO!! It was wonderful.

I am in Portsmouth. I have a ton of stuff I can give you. I was there for 6 months when I was 10 and loved it. Housing is gorgeous. I was back there in Nov for a port call. We should all get together sometime.
