Elton John is in town- I don’t think so

A fairly quiet morning with the family heading off in various directions. Joann and Tim went to the old part of town and spent some time wandering through the local market and buying some knick-knacks of green glass plate which was heart shaped and an old lighter on a small stand.

The weather was very kind to us today with quite a lot of sun with only a few clouds to break up the sky.For lunch we had some cheese specially imported from England, Ha and some biscuits as in the evening we are planning to get together for dinner and using up all the left overs from the previous evenings BBQ. We have pretty much moved from one Eurocamp ht to another for each evening mean and whilst the BBQ with Mady and Ken was held in our residence tonight's function would be held in Joanne and Tim's place.

However in the afternoon the family went to the swimming pool complex and Jennifer and I wandered later with the camera to take some photos of the family going down the various slides and/or splashing about in the indoor pool which is a bit like a sauna. They all had a great time and were little tired when they got back but as you know they never give up until the party’s over.

We had a nice dinner altogether with the kids anxious they do not miss the evening entertainment which is an Elton John Tribute Band. The whole bar area was quite packed so we found a nice warm spot in the bar from where we could hear the music and watch the event. He put on a good show playing he usual list of well known songs but after about an hour Jennifer and I left for a quiet period before we went to bed and leaving Tim and Joanne and the kids enjoying the show. Not sure what time the rest of the family got home but they were right down at the front sitting on the floor and really enjoying themselves.


I did take some photos and video which I will load on this blog once I get some decent Wi-Fi which does not cost fortune to use so will wait until we get to the Hotel later this week. The children have made friends with some young girls who have a home in Bristol and they have been having a great time running up and sown the road and playing all sorts of games. So all are having a good time.
