TARIFA.

Wednesday/Thursday/Friday 27th/28th/29th/ May.

Wednesday 27th.

Over night the storm from the Atlantic passed us by and as we got up we had grey clouds and strong winds;the exact opposite of the day before! Joan is feeling a lot better and looks brighter after her treatment from Silvia on Tuesday.No word yet from Chris to say when he will be back,but we are used to it from our last stay here! Sunday is our deadline to get back to Manilva so as to give us some time to get ready for the visit of Jack and Lyn from Australia,via England next Friday 5th June !In the evening we watched the football as Barcelona beat Manchester Utd. Barcelona played out of this world and Utd.did not play at all well!!

Thursday 28th.

The wind had not died down and was soon up to storm force; at lunchtime we started to get short power cuts every few minutes which got longer as the day went on, at 4-oopm the electricity went off and did not come back on so I had to ring the electricity company and eventually we found out that the engineers were working on the problem,power lines down, and it came back on at 6-30pm! After supper we watched the Britain’s Got Talent show which was very good,once again.

Friday 29th.

Today the wind here has died down a bit but down in Tarifa it was still blowing a storm and the sea was very rough and all the Palm Trees were bending over as we topped up at the Hypermarket for the weekend.Tonight we are having Pan Fried Fillets of Salmon in a Citrus sauce for dinner with Spinach,Peas and New Potatoes; we are still waiting to hear from Chris as to when he is getting back so as I can pick him up from the Airport in Gibraltar sometime on Saturday.

PS; Still no word from Chris at 3-00pm Saturday !
