Almeria Day 2 mmm

Well, they they've all been good days, but today was the vacationist day of them all. So good, so beautiful, so relaxing. We slept super late, then we went to a quiet, calm watered beach. We swam, drank orxata, ate watermelon, and read. Repeat till 7pm. We tried to walk around town later, but the salt started irritating our skin. Also, we ran out of coppertone and bought Spanish sunblock. It is very thick and it sticks to you. I have to scrub it off or it begins to flake. But if I sound like I'm complaining, we haven't burnt once.
We met a Dutch man who was so burnt he had to go to the hospital because he sun burnt his legs so bad and he was still only wearing 15.
Wednesday we want to wander the old town and return to the beach at night.
Mando besos,
Akasha


Later, we ate the simplest, yummiest dinner. Tomato and garlic salad with olive,the greenest, oliviest oil I've ever tasted, salad with tuna, tomatoes, carrots, and white asparagus, and olives, and a mushroom pasta. We giggled as we ate, it was so yummy. Oh, the wine here is high octane. Mike read the label as we finished; 14%. Yikes.

  1. Delightful! Somehow an afternoon at Fort Snelling just doesn't have the same panache - but we'll do our best....
