Lots of thunder in the night, but the morning was clear. I was up early and off for a run to Malgrat. Felt really good to run, and I went around the back a little and further than we had walked previously. Years ago my folks had stayed here in a hotel which I tried to find, I couldn’t – I ran back the other way, along the road by the coast, and it was great. Got back, far to sweaty to go straight in the pool, but I did anyway – the shock of the cold water nearly gave me a cardiacarest but I survived. Yet another massive breakfast, and afterwards, as we had put some towels down in the morning, we spent it around the pool. Bit of a doze, a little swim and some nice relax took us to lunch. I ordered a beer and a fanta, when the waiter saw this he did an amused “oooh lalaaaa” to me – not sure what he was insinuating, but it seemed to amuse him no end.
After lunch we went back, and the girls splashed around and I went back to my hidey hole on the balcony and drank and ate cooked pig skin – life was good. After they came back it started to rain again, but only when I noticed the ball, and my T-shirt were still around the poolside. I got wet.
Another walk up the strip and a visit to the same place we went on the first night, very slow service, and I had another Spaghetti Fruti de Mar – this one however had no sauce – just lashings of olive oil, it was okay, but no where near as nice as the others I had. After waiting for a week for the food and final drinks we mooched back. Kate and I had our silhouettes cut out by a bloke on the front – it took him about 30 seconds, it was so impressive, although whilst typing this it doesn’t do it justice.
Didn’t see much of Tenacious fly today.
