During February 2018 six members of Camberley Lodge made a visit to sunny Spain.
Whilst there they paid a fraternal visit to a meeting of Lodge of European Fraternity No. 52, Spanish Constitution, meeting at Hotel Playa Maro, Nerja.
Shown in the photograph are the six members of Camberley Lodge, together with W.Bro. Sandy Shingler of the Spanish Lodge.
Fortunately for the Camberley Members all of the Lodge proceedings were conducted in English, even though the Worshipful Master of the Lodge of European Fraternity is Spanish,
The whole evening was deemed a great success and was followed by an excellent and enjoyable Festive Board. Everyone had a great time and were made very welcome by the Spanish hosts.

In addition to the Lodge visit the opportunity was taken to do some sight-seeing in Malaga, Torre del Mar, Maro and Nerja.
Most welcome was the escape from the English winter, to enjoy a week of balmy temperatures in excess of 20 degrees C.
