Culture Shock?

From a late April snow storm in eastern Canada to fashionable southern Spain in two days. Puerto Banus is quite something. So many shops, a steady stream of people walking the waterfront and the most incredible array of expensive exotic cars in one spot. I haven't had much time to explore though we did have one quiet night in a little hotel in downtown Marbella (still struggling to drop the LLs). Two great meals out with the crew.

The boat wasn't in as bad shape as I'd expected though it needs cleaning and repairs. Slowly but surely. We've seen four of the men off and have had three ladies join up.

It is quite strange to be wearing long pants, sweaters and socks aboard the boat! No AC required! Temps in low teens C at night, and low 20s during the day. Nice.

Signs of Easter: Chocolate motorcycles!

Plan to head towards Alicante on Monday morning. It looks like a beautiful city.

Happy Easter. xo

Spring??

IT is about time to REVIVE the blog. Spring in NB, then off to Europe. This should mean lots of new adventures and great photo opportunities. The challenge will be the time and internet connections.

Last week my aunt mentioned how much she loved pussywillows so Nicole and I went on a hunt to get a bouquet for her. It ended up that the only ones we saw were right across the street from her house! How often what we want/need is right in front of our eyes. :-)
