August 1st, 2007 My First Sunday

After breakfast i went to the beach, i stayed there sunbathing and swimming until lunchtime. I can’t wait to have my lunch and return. It is lovely and the ocean is so refreshing, i stayed there until about 6pm. Then i went to shower and dress for dinner, i was eating at the seafood restaurant tonight, El Patio. The restaurant is on the beach, you can dine here and at the Italian restaurant once a week.

I left about 8:15pm my reservation was 8:30, i was seated and given a menu, there wasn’t a great deal to choose from. I chose the fish soup and seafood with rice, the waiter told me this was paellla. I’d had that already in the buffet restaurant, so i asked for the lobster, he said he’d bring me both, just for me. I didn’t like the soup very much but the dinner was very nice, i had a couple of vodkas with lemonade. The restaurant finished about 10:30 so then i made my way back to the hotel.

I went to the grill bar for some more drinks, i was sitting alone when a woman sat at my table. I had seen her when i was having a coffee by the pool the day before. She said her name was Violeta, she was from Poland but had been living in Canada for 16 years. She had come with her sister and two daughters. One of the daughters came along and said to her “you can’t do that, just sit next down”, Violeta said “yes i can i want to make friends. So that is how i got to meet and know Violeta and her family. Violeta was drinking a red coloured drink, she said it was called paradise, so i was introduced to the paradise cocktail and we chatted until 1am.
