Two "old fogies," one sun-soaked corner of Spain, and a series of unforgettable misadventures prove that it's never too late for delight, discovery, and divine surprises.

What could possibly happen when a retired couple heads to the Costa del Sol? Missed passports. Travel blunders. Unexpected detours. And somehow-miraculously-unforgettable meals, breathtaking villages, and moments of grace that make it all worth it.

Diversions and Delights in Costa del Sol is a laugh-out-loud travel memoir packed with warm mishaps, honest reflections, and delicious discoveries across southern Spain. From white-washed hill towns to seaside cafés, every chapter proves that the best adventures rarely go according to plan-and that's half the fun.

Also, because no good trip should end without good food, this book includes authentic Andalusian recipes, so you can recreate the flavors of Spain without losing your passport. Perfect for travelers, food lovers, and anyone who believes aging should come with better stories-and better meals.

Beutel, Lele: - Lele Beutel and her husband, Mike, enjoy traveling to new places and have found that, with each excursion, come opportunities to make a difference in people's lives. They consider themselves to be "secret agents" for God because of how He often leads them into unexpected situations where they're able to minister to others. With a degree in business communications, she spent 25 years as a financial advisor and was able to encourage many people mentally, spiritually, and financially through her faith-based advice. Now retired, she and her husband spend time with their two dogs, Andey and Barney, with grandkids, and as volunteers at their church. They also share experiences with their life group members and the neighbors they meet while walking the dogs.Other books she has written include: "The Camino Connection," about her healing pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago after the death of her son, "Lessons from the Cotswolds," which describes her eventful and hilarious hike through the Cotswolds with her husband, "What God Wants You to Know," a 365-day devotional that reveals God's heart as related in passages from Genesis through Revelation, "God Answers," a daily devotional with questions and answers to and from God, "The Reignbreaker," a young adult fantasy, "Flora's Story," about a young German refugee who miraculously survives both the Nazi and Russian regimes of Germany during WWII, and three books of poetry: "Lele's Lovesongs: Words of hope for the ones we love," "Lele's Sighs: Reflections and Recollections," and "Lele's Selah: Prayerful Poems that Inspire Hope."To reach her, you can find her on Facebook.
