Just after we had gone
to bed last night the wind got up and it rained – for about 10
seconds!
A bit later start today
but there's no rush and waiting for the sun to start warming up saves
on the heating! After breakfast took Jamie onto the beach for an hour
for a good run around and the occasional paddle. He was a bit
perplexed by the pony carts and didn't know whether to chase them,
bark at them or what. Instead he chased after his ball.
But the wind was cold
and straight off the sea still so back to Bertie for a coffee then a
trip across the road for fresh baguettes – literally straight from
the oven.
It was at the beginning
of our walk that we realised we'd met a British couple parked just
across the way from us before and after a bit of head-scratching and
diary checking we realised it was at Ampudia at Easter last year on
our way home. They too were Funsters who we had met before then;
can't now remember when but it might have been in Morocco. It's a
small world.
With nothing else we
particularly wanted or needed to do, and the wind still blowing fresh
and cool, we retreated to the van for books and sewing. Bren is
embroidering a quilt which her Mam started years ago and which she
brings away with us every trip. But at her present rate of progress
it'll be a while yet before it's finished!
The weather forecast
said it was probably going to be cloudy today but returning to
sunshine tomorrow and gradually getting warmer over the next week,
similar for Portugal. It only started to cloud over early evening but
doesn't look like it will amount to much.
