Another peaceful day around the apartment, we have decided it is quite tiring not doing to much. In the morning spent a while catching up on emails and blogging as usual as there were two days to be recorded. U go thro a day sort of thinking what you are doing and I can remember this for tomorrow but then tomorrow arrives and u think now what did we do.
However we did remember and what we did was spent quite some time looking at routes to get back to Santander for when the time comes. With the Easter holiday there may well be a lot more people looking at Hotels etc and if we want to stay somewhere nice and at a reasonable price its better that we begin looking now. A good friend recommended some while ago a Parador on the North West Coast of Spain in a place called Baiona and it looks jolly nice and when I looked at the pricing a couple of months ago it was expensive but doable at £ 180.00 per night, but when we came to book the lowest price I could get was £ 320 which for a night stop , no way. So this meant our route back was changed and so where to go?. So after due consideration and rather than just spacing the days out we thought where is nice and we have not been to the famous Douro Valley and so have booked in at a very nice hotel for a couple of nights.
So we have planned our route home from here to Evora, No I will let you know when we do it.
Today we had a late lunch of salmon and prawn salad sitting on the balcony as it was warm enough but once the sun disappears it does call down quite quicky we have noticed. In the meantime , back in the ranch, Broadoaks Park held the annual meeting with the estate management company, its a shame we missed it but we did not know when booking this holiday they would call for a meeting with just two weeks notice, this Management Company is rubbish.
In the evening we watched a guy touring areas of Bangkok which in al my many years of visiting did I ever see, but when working u get to see only the usual places. Following this we watched the ‘Plank of the week’ from Talk Tv , always a good watch and you learn some outstanding stupid things that so called intelligent people have done.
Whilst finishing up this Blog have just read briefly why Just Welby did nothing about the paedophiles in the Church of England, it was overwhelming he apparently said. This guy should be hung , drawn and quartered.
