This really is going to be the shortest and least newsy of our blogs but we move on tomorrow so hopefully there will be more to report then!

It was another lovely day - we woke up to blue skies and the morning was pretty warm. It got cloudy later on but its still pleasantly warm now at nearly 8pm. The forecast is saying 28C for tomorrow but we'll wait and see about that. Actually I'm not sure how we will know as our rather basic car doesn't show the temperature!

We walked into town first this morning to get a few things from Woolworths! Seems strange to be shopping at Woollies again but it is a supermarket here and not like it used to be at home.
Then we did the walk we did on Sunday again. This takes us across the bridge and by the opposite side of the lake and then round onto the beach facing the sea. The tide was low and you can paddle from the sea edge right round to the lakeside.

By the time we got back we were ready for our coffee! We then did lots of boring things like the washing! I guess this will be the last lot of washing before we get home. We only have a week left now. Time seems to have gone quickly.

We spent the afternoon just sitting around and eventually went for a swim in the pool here at the apartments. As yesterday there was someone in the pool when we wanted to go in! Normally this wouldn't worry us but it is quite a small pool. When we did get our chance we had to share the pool with the mechanical cleaner which had been left there! It was like trying to swim with a sea monster! No sooner had we got in the pool than someone else arrived so we didn't stay in long!

Tonight we have been back to the Italian restaurant we went to on Saturday and had another good meal.

I'm pleased to report that Steve is making a steady recovery from the terrible cricket result last night! He has lots of suggestions as to how to put things right but I'm not sure he'll get chosen as coach!
