Vamos a la playa

It was planned to make another trip today since the weather forecast promised more clouds and rain. And then the sun was out when we woke up and the sky was blue so that we instantly (almost) decided to go to the beach.

I had a very long breakfast again while Annemarie went to leave the table early. The good girl is always waiting for me to finish blogging.

Finally we made our way to the beach, stretched out in the sun and fell asleep respectively finished ‘The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy‘. I am not sure what to think about it. Is the answer to everything really ’42’? And do I need a towel for hitch hiking? On the other hand when would I go hitch hiking? In the galaxy? So maybe no need to worry about it… But just in case will read the other books in the series as well.

I started with a different book on the beach though, ‘The Song of Achilles‘ by Madeline Miller. I love all kinds of historical novels and this one I found at home (which means I bought it a long time ago). Figured it’s the perfect beach read and so far so good.

Besides sleeping and reading all
afternoon we also made it to a beach bar for an afternoon Sangria and a San Pellegrino.

Doesn’t it just look perfect?

Tonight was Gala Dinner at our hotel and since we starved all day, we tugged in at dinner. And this time some of the food even made it onto my camera.

And here is desert consisting of maracuja and a chocolate mousse cake.

Originally the cake looked better. We had some problems putting it on the plate. So you see, one can have its cake and eat it too.
Yours, Pollybert
