A rest day today!!
My calf has been playing up again over the past few days…and last night I properly tweaked it……on the steps up to the apartment! Around the 641st step of the day!!
So I am back to hobbling around…so decided to make this a proper rest day.
But what a nice place to do it.
Washing.
Reading.
Updating blog.
Swimming.
Sunbathing…and more reading.
A bit of planning.
Then beers and food in the evening.
And that was it…..
So I only went down and back to the apartment twice…meaning only around 1,000 steps to hobble up and down…….hahaha! (Martin went to the bakery first thing….and went for a wander up to the castle….so it was probably closer to 3,000 for him!….
The swimming was gorgeous…..with a 600+m circuit of the buoys.
And over beers…we watched football (the final games of the Premier League, all getting played at once)! Man City losing to West Ham so we switched to the Liverpool game…missed all the key action of the Man City extraordinary three-goals-in five-minutes comebacks….switched back to the City game…and missed the Liverpool goals. But all in all it was gripping watching all the same. i have never know such a tight and extraordinary finish to the season.
Not one photo today….but this shows the swimming spot, the sunbathing spot…beers just round the corner to the left…and otherwise sitting here reading!! Perfect!
And later..I tried to book ferry tickets (Greece Italy, and Italy Spain)…for which you needed to fill in all passport details etc etc etc…only for my Credit Card to be refused….whereupon all those details disappeared and you had to start again!! On the third attempt….it worked…but only to the extent of a pin number being sent to my NZ mobile number…which of course I am not using here!! Aaaaaaaagh! Phoned the bank in NZ…..then one booking worked…and the second was…refused once again! Gave up and went go bed!
