MANILVA ,CALLE SAN VICENTE 1

The last week after our few days at the Aparthotel has been spent at home catching up with the chores,doing the washing,stocking up with food and drink!and checking out our e-mails which we always look forward to.We did not have to work at the Cafe and Supermarket as Mano made alternative arrangements so we have enjoyed our time doing nothing,reading books and sitting on the roof terrace in the warm sun! At the start of the week Brenda went to the doctors to have some treatment on a sore shoulder,it was the same doctor that looked after me when we had the fall from the scooter so he also is able to give you a ultra sound and injection as well as the prescription and she is now feeling a lot better. We called into some of our old haunts in the marina and also went across to the sales garage were the Winnebago is,we then started it up and we moved it to a front position and at the same time passed on the sales leads from our advert.We then called into see Vidal and Gissy to catch up with all the news,they have had some friends from Germany staying with them for a couple of weeks.We have also had some phone calls on our new house phone which again is always a nice surprise,thank's Tim,Penny and Joyce! We also called our friend in Madrid, Rafael as the internal calls in Spain are free!! On Sunday Anna joined us for dinner as we Roasted a Corn-fed Chicken with all the trimmings including Brenda's six vegetables, we sent Anna home with a plated meal for Mano as he was working at the Cafe Bar and Supermarket! Over the Easter week we received some Easter cards from Brenda's two sisters in England but not from her sister in Australia,we had also not had a reply to our e-mail and when we tried to phone on Skype there was no answer! The mystery was solved by the picture below showing Lyn on holiday in New Zealand which arrived by e-mail at the end of the week,She has had a fabulous time including landing on a glacier by helicopter! New Zealand looks spectacular!!
