After breakfast I went to find the beach, I was shocked at how steep the walk was and afraid if I lost my footing I’d roll down hill. On the way down I came across a family coming back, I asked if the beach was at the bottom, they said there wasn’t any beach only rocks. I made my way back to the hotel with them and wondered how I was going to spend my two weeks, I didn’t relish two weeks stuck by the pool.

I went to find a sunbed to no avail, i asked the waitress, she said there was another smaller pool the other side but no bar, so i took a couple of drinks with me and stayed there. Even though there was a breeze it was so hot, I had to use an umbrella to protect myself and go in at lunch time or I’d have melted. After the days sunbathing and sleeping I went in about 5pm to get ready for dinner, it was strange I had to keep reminding myself it was my birthday. After dinner I went to sit outside and wait for the show, I got a bit of a shock how windy and cool it was and was glad I’d taken some cardigans with me, but first we had to sit through the kids mini disco. It was a bird show, nice to see but not very entertaining, I had a few vodkas, I needed them. At 11:15 the lights went out, I thought oh that’s nice sitting in the dark with my drink. I asked the waiter but he said i couldn’t take them in the other bar but I took them in with me and finished them there.

I soon learnt that when the all inclusive finished at 11pm the bar closed it was lights out and they cleared away and if you wanted more you had to go in the other bar where you had to pay for the drinks. I had no chance of getting a sunbed by the main pool and bar they always had towels on them, I got over that it was just a drag back and forth from the other pool for refreshments.
