Almuñécar


We walked around Almuñécar looking at a few final sites, and as the last two days were sunny, we walked along the beach. Caroline and I even swam in the pool, well jumped in, went as fast as we could across it and got out. But we did lie on the grass in the sun for a while. As it is Mela's birthday on Saturday, we had a little celebration. Caroline had thought ahead as she always does and brought a card, candles, and signs. I who hadn't as usual was lucky to find a surprisingly good little kids' cake when I was walking home from the beach in the morning. As it was a kids' cake, Mela and I ate the Smarties and icing off the last bits as the boys used to do, although one time they did it before anyone got to the cake.
