Remember when I was so excited about having bought a pay-as-you-go dongle from Orange so I could stay connected during my week-long holiday in Málaga last month? And remember how I commented about how temperamental it was and that I could only connect now and then? Well, the damn thing turned out to be totally useless when I went to Zahara…

This is my last full day of my holidays and I realised I haven’t posted even one holiday photo of me (other than my feet). So this is one that Nog took yesterday evening as we were sitting on the rooftop bar having cocktails and waiting to watch the sunset.
Nog got here yesterday morning and is going back to Seville later on today, and Agustín will be coming to pick me up tomorrow afternoon to take me home. It’s sure been an interesting ten days and I’ve had a really nice break, but I am quite looking forward to snibbling my boys tomorrow and also getting into my new routine. After all this time being sick I feel I’m more than ready to take my life back from cancer and start working on all the projects that have been on hold for so long.
Sure did love my holidays though. It’s the best August I’ve ever had!
Thanks again to everyone who made this summer of healing possible.

Today’s Photohunter theme is “ripples”.
Bit of a no-brainer for me this week as I am spending ten glorious sun & sea filled days in Zahara de los Atunes.

Feeling more than somewhat duh I promptly took out my camera…

A couple of days ago I got a call from my friend Paloma telling me she’d just arrived in Zahara and was going to be here for awhile so we should get together. I met Paloma through Agustín and she was also my student for awhile. She’s a bit older than me and is the mother of my favourite chatterbox, Bosco, who is going to be coming to Zahara today. But I am getting ahead of myself…

A little beach humour for you today. Not taken here, but it could have been. Lots of irregular bottoms in sight, as well as lots of bare breasts. But I am always swathed in my happy fish sarong and long baggy t-shirt. If I can convince myself I’m invisible I might actually take the plunge before I leave. But for now my feet are content with their daily walks in the sea…
