A VERY WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON SUNDAY;

SUNDAY 12^th / JUNE 2016.

We both managed a nice lie in this morning as the village is very quiet and we had no dogs in ‘ Doggy World Heaven’ to welcome, no shopping ( we are stocked up !) no early places to go and ‘travels’ to go on! After breakfast of ‘ Smoked Bacon Butties’ & tea we are getting our selves ready slowly, showering, shaving ( Me!) pampering ( Brenda !) choosing our outfits etc!

The sun was out early and its already warm and by lunchtime it will be very hot, there is still a little breeze that is making it very pleasant, the week ahead’s forecast is also looking settled and fine with more of the same and getting a little hotter.

Just a quick update on the sports front; Hamilton is on the pole position for the ‘Canadian Grand Prix’ – in the ‘UEFA European Championships’ Wales played very well and had a good win 2-1 while England also played the best they have in a long time and led 1-0 until the 92^nd minute when Russia equalised! England next game is on Thursday against Wales!! Watch this space.

At lunchtime we are going along to the ‘ Brasserie’ at the Golf Club for a drink before we go up the next valley below the village for our ‘Sunday Roast Lunch’ at “ Taste by Dirk “ We are ‘checking out’ both places to see if they are worthy of our patronage in the future! Watch this space.

Tomorrow morning Mano is picking me up and we are going across to Marbella to collect the hire car, when I return I will collect Brenda and we will go up to the ‘ Manilva Green Aparthotel’ to check out the folks two-bed roomed/two bath roomed apartment and put in the folks ‘ Welcome Packs’ ( Tea, Sugar, Water, Bread, Butter, Jam, Weetabix etc !) with a nice plant in the lounge! Then in the early evening we are going along the coast to ‘La Linea De La Concepcion’ and Brenda is going to walk, fingers crossed, across the border into Gibraltar Airport to welcome Jack & Lyn, Norah & Jenny to sunny Spain and Manilva! I will be waiting on the border in the 7 seater hire car, a ‘ Seat Alhambra 2.OTDI’ to bring them back along the spectacular coast road!! Watch this space.

NB; The Blog will be posted at different times, as I have the chance, due to the very busy itinerary that is planned while the folks are here for ten days, keep watching this space!!

Thoughts for the Day; See above.
