HOTEL LE MIRADOR Portiragnes

... shells i have seen and Australian doesnt have any quite so nice.
The sun was out and it felt so good but it was still cold. However that didnt stop birdie from fetching sticks out of the water. In the distance i also saw the mountains in spain and a few buildings, which i thought was pretty neat. I also saw a couple of bunkers that the German soldiers built to be protected from the Americans that they thought were coming.
After ...

... wonder what the history of these buildings is. Built in the 13th Century they’ve seen a lot of changes and different owners. Now they house postcards and toy swords. Sometimes I wonder what of our daily lives will be worthy of the history books…

The next day Brain was well enough to cycle. Thankfully it was an easier day rolling through a nice flat valley with a killer tail wind. Another wine region there were vines all ...

So as you all know, I just came back from my 2 1/2 week road trip throughout Spain. For those of you who don't have Facebook, here's a link you can click on that will allow you to view the photo album without joining Facebook:

Overall, this trip has been absolutely amazing. I had never traveled alone before but I have to say ...

So I'm going to nix Portugal from my plans. I started getting a bad feeling when I called them the other day in order to confirm my arrival and they had no idea who I was. Maybe I spoke too fast, but they seemed really confused by my arrival. I sent an email to the guy and he seemed really mad that my dates kept changing and he told me it wasn't worth their time if I came less ...

Well, finally - after a false start setting out to pick up friends from Pau airport a day early! - first night: moored up alongside the Canal du Midi, just south of Beziers. Some very noisy ducks for company... Bit of a gloomy one weather-wise. Rained last night, but forecast suggests brightening up gradually as day goes on. Slowing our departure from ...

... loved me and couldn't wait to see me (I can't blame them). I only have one week until I leave for Portugal, so I really don’t have time to sit around and feel sorry for myself (Boo Hoo Hoo, I have a whole year of vacation and I am going to Asia, poor me…right, pffrtt). So that’s that. As time goes by, I promise that my blog will get more and more interesting.

... bah d'accord. Et quand dois-je y être?
Bah dans 4 jours!
Ahhhhh, me dis-je intérieurement, mais non!!! Ok, donc on voit tout ça lundi.
A bientôt!"

Bon, super, je viens d'apprendre que je pars mardi en Hollande pour 4 mois et je n'ai qu'une journée pour tout organiser.

Super, bon bah sur ce, on va aller à la plage, peut-être est-ce une mauvaise blague et que il n'y aura plus rien ce soir ;)

All good things have to end and we said good bye to Graeme and Rita. After having a swim and moping around Sam said - thats it - lets go out, so off went.

The first stop was St Guiliem le desert which is a lovely little town north of Herepian. We then went on to Cirque de Navacalles which is ...

... of crisis comes opportunity - they even write the two words using the same charcters I am unreliably told. The message here is that if any of you can suffer 36 hours at sea and fancy a career change, then there is a fortune to be made selling 24 hour sandwiches and pizzas on the Tangier - Sete ferry. But don't expect much in the way of staff accommodation. Or pool facilities. The swimming pool in the brochure has been mislaid at customs or something and is not on this boat - the open ...

... us a bottle of wine with our supper!! We met a lady from Perth, Austraila, who gave us a map that her and her husband have researched @ published of WWII & Normandy area, which is where we are headed tomorrow. We are stq(the Q is an A on French keyboard)ying until May 7 up north. On 7th, 8th and 9th we will be at this Paris hotel - 01 47 70 34 34 (tele) It has been difficult to find time to find internet services and we are just having too good of a time. We hope all is well in USA.
