DAY 20: A JUSTFORUS DAY


...when  there has been a full day of weekend touring, the following day begs for a quiet in-the-sun-day...

...last night we (as Francois so poetically puts it) slept with the angels...I fell asleep sitting up in bed editing photos...

...there was an opportunity today to hire our driver (the one we really like and trust) to take us to the Trade Fair...but neither of us seemed to be motivated to make such a `complicated`decision...

...we chose instead to secure our chairs by the pool early (weekends the poolside seats fill up quickly)...had breakfast...did some more photo editing at the outside terasse while Francois sipped a cappuccino...then spent the rest of the day doing a whole lot of nothing in particular...

...I read while Francois enjoyed browsing on the tablet...some chose full frontal sunning (we get requests to remind to `flip in 30 minutes`- should put these guys on a rotisserie) but we have found that even under the umbrellas the sun finds us but in a more gentle way...

..after showering we returned to the outside patio to enjoy a cocktail (new favourite `DAWA`: vodka, lots of lime and honey - a very thick brown honey - with lots of ice)...very refreshing!...shared a burger platter and lobster bisque...
