Looks lovely!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0

The scooter hire place got the dates mixed up so have had to stay at the hotel tonight. Just look at the amazing sunset view though 🥰

Fabulous. How about having a gigantic wall covering of that back at home to gaze at in the evenings?I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

That’s a great idea from you both. I have a similar canvas on my wall at home but it would be nice to have one of somewhere I’ve actually been.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

Hola 😎
Jumping on early while I’ve got a WiFi signal in the room. Woke up to the beautiful scent of pines that you get here. Still pitch black at the moment.Mr SA was really struggling to walk last night so will be relieved to get the scooter and stroller this morning. I was concerned he was going to fall thankfully he didn’t. I forget sometimes just how hard work he is out of his home environment. He’s happy the TV in the room has ITV. The scooter is arriving at 8 so will tie in nicely with breakfast service times.The waitress in the bar remembered us from last year. I expect Mr SA is quite memorable though 😆
I forgot to bring the plug to my watch charger so the battery is dead. There’s a huge shop nearby that sells everything so will see if they’ve got something. Not the end of the world if they haven’t, most importantly I brought my phone charger.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5 -
Stunning sunset. One for your wall for sure!Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!2 -
Beautiful photo. There is nothing as wonderful as that which the natural world provides and that is certainly spectacular.3
