Three idyllic days in the sun...warm enough for a swim!

We have enjoyed beach weather for three days, as well as long walks along the boardwalk.  We have done a lot of reading and have watched a fair amount of snooker on tv, as well as some Spanish soap operas! We have eaten a lot of ham and cheese sandwiches. Mark just finished The Shadow of the Wind, a mystery set in Barcelona.  I just finished The Story of Edgar Sawtelle and have begun The Madonnas of Leningrad.

Yesterday, we discovered a new area along the boardwalk - a park with some waterfalls.  It is quite lovely and was unexpected as we had walked close to it with Michael and Nancy on several occasions.

We talked with Maura on the phone and she helped us to rent a car for our last days in London next month.  We await word from Chris and Ken that they have arrived in Barcelona where we will meet them on Friday.

On our last full day, we at lunch at a restaurant at the top of the waterfall area, made from an old Mississippi River boat.  We also, at long last, were brave enough to go for a swim.
