Holiday in Salou

Went on hoiiday to Salou in Spain some weeks ago with the family.
Found a hotel that was family friendly but also had plenty of feedback from couples, hoping to be able to get some captures at night.

Soundwise the hotel was a massive disappointment. All rooms had good airco so not one room kept their window open at night. No luck with neighboring rooms either. I did hang out till late though on the outside walkway that all bedrooms were facing when out of nowhere I heard a sound from a block of flats opposite our hotel. The shit thing was though that we were by a busy road and the whole episode got massively disturbed by loads of cars passing by, we are talking 02:30 in the morning here.

10 minutes later they were at it again though and I managed to get the following (brief) recording.

There was also a part 3 and by that time the road was more quiet, but believe it or not just as they started the bin-collectors came and loaded all the commercial skip size bins of our hotel. This was like 3 AM in the morning! So missed 2, got 1...

Speaking of hard earned recordings..

The following night I left a recorder near to the block of flats from which I got the first recording(never heard them again) and went for a long walk around town to see if I got lucky somewhere. Loads of hotels and apartment flats for locals and Spanish visiting the coast.

After some hours with no luck and it being after 02:00 AM again I decided to go back to the hotel when just outside my hotel a young Spanish couple passed me that seemed quite into eachother. And she was hot. So 1+1 is 2 overhere so I decided to turn around and follow them to their flat.

Eventhough the block of flats were on private property it was accessible so I managed to get right under their window. Sadly they were on the 2nd or 3rd floor and they had their window closed. I did hear some sounds at times tho at figured that if she'd get load enough I should be able to hear it. Waited for about 45 mins until I totally had enough I left my Sony recording device under some plants and headed home back to bed. An hour into the recording they do get into action.

Sadly the sounds are faint because of the distance and the closed window. They were at it for about 45 mins to an hour in total with short faint sounds every minute. The recording got massively interrupted just when they seemed to get a bit loader again, by again, a bintruck which stayed for like 10 minutes.

For people who are okay with faint sounds and have a good quality speaker/headset I have cut it down to the first 10 minutes of their fun. Foreplay starts at the very start but the brief spell of loudest action is not until 04:30 in. After a while things die down and faint sounds from her continue for a long time. I decided to cut it at some point but you get the gist.

Great efforts you have made and fine recordings too - well done and it shows how difficult it is sometimes to get lucky. I have been on numerous trips where recording has been useless because of noise or passing people, although you hear something while being there. That's life!! :D
