Today, June 20th, is the official start of summer. During 2 weeks around this time, we can see the sun set in the ocean. Once it retreats towards its winter position, buildings block the horizon.
We went swimming in the ocean a couple of times. Nothing beats an ocean swim. We drove to one of our favourite southern villages, Alcalá, went for a swim and found a nice enough restaurant with a terrace on the main square for a meal. Some restaurants won´t open until tourists start to fly in, whenever that may be. Others have big enough terrace spaces and work with locals. But the rules are basically the same: wait to be seated so chairs and tables can be disinfected, face mask on when talking to the waiter, make reservations…
Yone was at home as he was still having online classes.
Monday 8th Dácil was back to her logopedia sessions with BFF Bea. The staff now wears uniform and face shields and children must also wear their face shields. They are picked up outside, where we wait, but other than this COVID protocol, sessions are as usual and Dácil was delighted to be reunited with Bea.
Yone went diving for the first time in many months and we gladly volunteered to pick him up and brought the basket with bathing suits along. Had a great swim on a rocky beach and nice fresh fish in a nearby restaurant.
I couldn´t resist myself and bought Dácil 3 dresses at Exota. King Louie, or for children it´s Petit Louie. The first dresses I bought her there came to us via Julia. She went crazy in the sale baskets and shipped us a box full of goodies. Some of these she still wears as t-shirts!! This was in 2013!!! So buying King Louie is well worth the money.
This is one of the dresses I received in the mail 2 days ago. The sandals are also new.
