CALAHONDA

Monday14th January.
After our busy weekend we got up late and had a light breakfast on the balcony,We then went over to Estepona to do some shopping and then called into make sure that the Winnebago was all right and also say hello to Vidal and Gisssy.We headed back to the apartment in the late afternoon sunshine ,then we stayed in for supper and TV.
Tuesday 15th January.
We woke to a grey day so we stayed in and had a at home day to catch up with some washing and then some reading.During the day the garage rang to say that the part had arrived from Germany and that after they had fitted it they were going to do two road tests and put it on the computer for further checks.In the evening we had a Chicken curry with Rice for dinner.
Wednesday 16th January.
The forcast for the next week is very good,blue skies,warm sunshine and a temperature of 20 degs! So after breakfast we went for a walk and a paddle along the beach and as we were out the garage rang to say that the car would be ready on Thursday morning-one month after the breakdown ! In the afternoon Brenda is able to sunbathe on the balcony which catches the sun all day. In the evening we are able to watch English TV and catch up with all the popular programms as we have supper.
Thursday.17th January.
We went into Marbella and picked up the car from the garage,the only thing yet to be fixed is the radio as the code card is not working so we are back in the Smart car for the first time in a month.One good thing was that the garage did not charge for the 4/4 Smart car over the last two weeks and also gave us a break on the costs! As the weather is so good we are planning to go out tomorrow if Vidal and Gissy can make it,as we leave on Saturday morning.Next week we are house and dog/cat sitting for Mano and Anna for 1/3 weeks as they go on holiday to Wales! The pictures above show Cabopino Marina at lunchtime today and also the apartment.
