DAY 182

Monday 9 January 2012

Rising at 6:45, we wanted to be sure we would get to Frances' in good time to take her to the airport. In the time between then, we loaded the van, tidied up the place, and left by 8:30, arriving with no problems 15 minutes later.

Gathering up the last few things for her trip to the Canary Islands, Frances began to show us where things were in her place. Questions were witheld until the end of the "class" because otherwise she would lose her train of thought and surely skip over something she meant to say later.

Charles took her to airport in her car while Nicole and Dian settled into the place. How beautiful it was! The water from the canals sparkled right outside her balcony and the sun shone its warm rays onto the house.

Upon Charles' return, he and Dian went to the big Target-like megastore store Alcampo to get a few necessities and even a little horchada, a local milky drink made from "tiger nuts."

Nicole made grilled cheese sandwiches for the group (something she'd been craving the past few days) and a little curry mayo, pepperoni, bread and oil, olives and beer to boot!


Catching up with some bills and e-mails, we called the day to an end after a phone chat with Dian's parents Marie and Joe.

Naps are a beautiful thing
