CASA OLIMPIA.

Wednesday/Thursday 18th/19th March.

Wednesday 18th.

Still the weather has not improved here at the villa so we had a quiet day pottering around the house,playing with the dogs,watching a little TV and in the afternoon I showed Joan,on our Camcorder some of the sites on our travels in France and around Madrid. Later I made a Beef Stew for dinner and some Mince and Vegetables for the dogs! We have also been talking on Facebook to Australia as Lyn’s daughter’s have been giving us all the news! I’ve also had various e-mails from family and friends to answer but are still waiting for the first e-mail from Brenda’s sister ,Norah who has just come on line for the first time and is following our blog already,come on Norah you can do it!

Thursday 19th.

This morning we went down to Tarifa to top up with the essentials as we are expecting the folks home this weekend,we hope! It’s been nearly four weeks and we are looking forward to going home at long last!! The wind has dropped and in Tarifa the sun was out;there are a lot of ships about down in the Strait and when I checked on the web page it turns out that there is a Naval exercise going on as well as the usual ships passing to and through to places all over the world! Mark,Mano’s building partner has just sent me an e-mail asking me to take some measurements around the villa,which I sent back to him in good old Feet and Inches, as they are finalizing the quote for this weekend when Chris is home.Tonight we are having Pan Fried Turkey Breast with a Mushroom sauce and Frits for dinner as Joan enjoyed it last time,the dogs are having Mince and Vegetables which I did yesterday especially for them!
