Well a walk to the promenade very early yesterday morning meant that all plans were changed and a beach day was in order. How could I resist the lull of the gentle waves and the sun. The beach was being cleaned and flattened by various tractors and general day to day life was just starting at the shops along the front. I always love this time of day.
I had a glorious morning on the beach , grabbed some lunch, my favourite Florette salads that I first found in Salou last year, and then another couple of hours of boosting my vitamin D levels before I decided to explore.
The view back down to the sea from the park.
I also found a building that looked like a ship, not something you see everyday, on a side street close to my hotel, is it a ship that has been 'grounded'? I need to find out...............
and I have, it is not a boat, but a boat shaped building designed by architect Fernando Morilla in 1953, wow 70 years ago. Amazing building and satisfying my inner architect.
The cava taste test for the evening was a Freixenet Secco, not something I have seen in the UK although I am sure that you are familiar with the black Freixenet bottle.
The cava was just the right sweetness. I really am a But girl but willing to give a seco a try.
It had a peachy taste and there was no aftertaste
It wasn't too bubbly, and it kept its fizz well, perfect for a warm winter evening in Spain.
Netflix was the order of the evening, and another early night.
I'd clocked over 12K steps yesterday even though I spent most of the day prostrate on the beach, and luckily another day where I managed to escape being harpooned, or dragged out to sea by Greenpeace.
I'm truly winning at life.
Have a great day and I hope that those who had to suffer Storm Debi are ok, actually I hope that my fence is still standing.
Happy Tuesday
