Sand

That last entry was written on the beach several hours ago. It's nice having a WiFi signal almost everywhere on the resort. You don't have to use it, but it's there if you want it.

Much of the day has been spent on the beach, like yesterday. Again we picked a spot where the Gorse Fox could remain in the shade, but the Silver Vixen could make the most of the sun. The morning was quiet and though there were plenty of guests around, everyone was preoccupied with their books or their tans. The Silver Vixen and Gorse Fox focussed on our books.

Around lunchtime a few clouds scudded over and there were a few raindrops. It never amounted to anything but we used it as an excuse to get some lunch. Coconut shrimp, some fries, and a shrimp BLT to follow seemed appropriate - particularly when washed down with some local rum and house Merlot.

While we were eating we managed to have a video call with Urban-cub. It was well timed as it gave us a chance to say goodnight to Ellie (who seemed genuinely pleased to see us).

The afternoon was back at the beach. The Gorse Fox played some football with the staff for a minutes, but there really wasn't the room to have a proper kick about. He then went for a swim. He's not sure if he's mentioned it before, but the sea seems incredibly salty here, but it is nice and warm and makes swimming a pleasure. As before, he had the sea to himself which made it very enjoyable. (Choosing the east beach was definitely the right selection).

(Very pleased to see the 1-0 win for Spurs against Newcastle tonight. That guarantees Champions League football next season).
