At the Beach with Carol

Sunday July 12

About 9.30am the cell phone rang. I answered it and it was Carol. She asked if we were going to the beach and I said yes. (I had invited her to meet when she was here last Sunday and go to the beach.)

Jayne and I planned to go to the Sunday market, and get the bus at 8am, but because we were up late last night watching a movie, we got up late this morning.

We met Carol on the beach. We got to the beach at about 11.30am and I thought that was late, but it was even later that a lot more people came to the beach. I see that the beach is only crowded on weekends. So, it’s an indication of a poor economy as most Spaniards come here by car on weekends.

We left about 2pm and went back to the apartment to shower. Then we went out to eat lunch. We treated Carol to lunch.

Carol drove us back and she went home.

In the evening, we watched a movie. Bill had a lot of VHS movies here that we are watching. Before we came down here, Steve said that the DVD doesn’t work, but at least the VHS works and that there are movies here.
