  🧹 The Salty Spain Special — Chapter 14 🍼 The Biggest Surprise Yet The Salty Gang were finally home. The treasure had survived the journey. The teddy bear had survived. The Hawaiian shirts had survived. And, most importantly, Ye Olde Large Lad had survived several hours without a proper buffet. The treasure chest was sitting in the middle of the room. Everyone gathered around it. Salty looked at the mess. “Right.” Nobody moved. “We need to tidy this up.” Large Lad looked horrified. “TIDY?” “Yes.” “We just found treasure.” “And now we're going to organise it.” Large Lad sighed. “This holiday is getting worse.” 🧹 Operation Tidy-Up The team began sorting everything.

  🇪🇸 The Salty Spain Special — Chapter 5 ⛲ The Fountain of Clues The morning after the great fish-market feast, the Salty Gang were up early. Well… Most of them. Ye Olde Large Lad was still asleep. Captain Morgan opened the curtains and looked outside. “Beautiful morning.” Dinkz grabbed a coffee. “Perfect day for treasure hunting.” McFinleyyy checked the map. “We follow the clues.” John Daniels nodded. “Simple.” Salty smiled. “Nothing can go wrong.” Sarah looked at him. “Every time you say that, something goes wrong.” Salty ignored her. He had a treasure to find. 🗺️ Following the Clues The group set off through the Spanish streets, following the directions on the map. The first clue led them past a café. The second took them towards a little square. The third appeared to point towards a fountain. But there was something else. Someone was following them. Salty noticed first. He turned around. A young woman was walking towards them. She smiled. “Are you the treasure hunters?” Ever...
