another beach day over and i feel even more rested than yesterday, i can hardly believe that would even be possible, but the proof is here blogging. great day after a few hours sleep i woke up to the sound of the churchbells, telling me it was 10, so just about time to get up and do something. although it felt nice to stay in bed just that little longer.
breakfast done and changing the sheets of the bed so i was ready for some beach time, well deserved i think. i just arrived at my spot and to my suprise three blue shorts walked by, and yet again carried by worthy species of the male kind. they settled down not far from me, and within minutes walked to the waters edge to put their hands in the water, tell each other that it was very cold and than almost simultaneously run their wet hands through their hair. turned around and went back to their island of towels, while walking rolling up their shorts and tugg it in along the legs, so that they ended up with something that somewhat resembled a speedo..... to get the maximun exposure of course. why not just wear a speedo gentleman? that still seems to be not done, we rather walk in a diper like short, and no, sure you do not look like a big baby, think again amigo.
its fun to watch the young ones, and listen, even though they speak spanish, i still know what it is about when one talks about Durex Ultra. i was all smiles. indeed somethings are truly universal. after a while i put my headphones back on and relaxed in the somewhat very warm sunshine (not to say hot) with refreshings dips in the ocean in regular intervals. Keep moist and cool!!!
later on the day i met my friend for coffee and a short talk, i was to tired to concentrate on spanish and i was a little angry that for a third year in a row my sunglasses f-up, call them ray-ban, its the first pair of the worthless line i must say, my regular ones are much better and are just as old. this model is not going to make history. so of i went to buy glue and repair what little there was to repair, they have to survive a good 2 weeks. so off i went with my super-glue. by now i am glad i didn't get stuck to the sink, as always when you are busy with lifes strongest glue, the phone rings, someone slams a door and the microwave pings. Grrrrrrrrr. But i managed and my fingers were not glued to each other or something and my glasses are hopefully holding on. I only have a layer on the skin of two finger tips (not attached to each other i would like to mention here), not too bad i thought. i had a light dinner at home and off we went to another bar for drinks. here the wifi worked so i ended up sitting there for a couple of hours chatting away to friends old and new while drinking my wine and watching the sunset, the TV over my head switched on to the football game wasn't even disturbing, i am truly on holiday!! for years i walked by this spot on my way to the beach and never sat down, i made good for that today and will probably the coming weeks. great wine and strong wifi, what more can i want? love when a holiday comes together!!! i even forgot the glue moment untill i sat down to write. the table next to me is occupied with 2 young spanish man of which one took the effort on putting a pair of blue shorts, just for me! (not mentioning the amazing pair of legs showing). chatting to each other and watching the soccer game. raising their voices only to shout about a goal or the posibility of one. But hey, i was chatting away and sometimes glanced at the TV not to give the impression i am not interested about 22 man and a ball. Smile at Diego and his friend (mum just passed by and called his name) to agree on hs comments (what so ever) about the game or a newspaper article when he raised his voice. i might even try some facetime here, and let somebody else in a far far away, and probably cold place know that i am doing well here in the south (where you can walk in shorts till way after midnight). this should be a "kodak moment view spot", Diego (and amigo) in the front, palm trees, the beach, the ocean, harbour lights and in the distance the dancing lights of the anchored sailing boats, add to that the sound of the waves, which i can still hear even sitting under the TV. now i had to pay more attention to my friends online as i was chatting on whatssapp, facebook chat and messenger. don't wanna tell the wrong person the things they maybe should not know (yet) or give them an answer that absolutely makes no sence to them. i managed to do so and simultaneously chatted to friends in holland, england and brazil at the same time. the wind picked up, i paid my bill and made my way home, slowly as it was this breeze from the ocean that drove the heat away. half way home i locked eyes with another of the local Juan's and he even turned around smiled and gave me a "hola!", well how nice! now i am about to finish my drink at home and get eady for bed. tomorrow i might use a my spot at Macao Taperia to blog there, i will anyhow post this blog. Good night world, it was a great day, for me, as i understand somewhere else war maybe just about to happen. Take care out there!
