Splish, splash






Sometimes it seemed we had the pools to ourselves. Precisely at 9.30am every morning an elderly German gentleman came down (he stays at the Hotel for four months of the year) and measured the temperature of the outside pool. It never dropped below 20C. The indoor pool is heated but not humid.
Swimming every day has encouraged me to keep on going so we have joined Splash as we love the wave there and it is just on our doorstep. I love being in the water - it is such a feeling of freedom. Tomorrow we are going to London (only £16 return on the train!) and going to visit Jess's grave (or whatever the place is called that you put ashes).
Then we are off to The Netherlands soon to visit family. Kees's sister Ada worsens by the week (she has Alzheimers) - my friend Alison is doing the Athens Marathon on 30 Oct for Dementia and Alzheimers - go Alison! Then hopefully Limoges to see Karen (£7 from Stansted!) in December. It's almost Halloween. Time when all bad things are put right and all those who have done wrong have it come back threefold.
