Fembat Unhinged

Walking along the front at the moment is lovely. On Saturday the sun was shining but, owing to the strong winds, it was still a little cold. The flowers in the small gardens have started to bloom though – very pretty. Failed to do them any real justice.

Apologies for the lack of updates of late – my schedule is hectic. Not only do I currently have quite a few jobs on at present but my exercise regime is really busy too. In between walking, interval training and swimming all I seem to do is work! But I am hoping for a payoff come August when I intend to take the month off to celebrate my (hopefully) greatly reduced moi

New Years Eve was spent on the Balcon de Europa in Nerja. It was a fun night with lots of champagne but a lower key affair than previous years owing to the cutbacks. Still everyone seemed to be having fun.

At this point we were on the 30 minute countdown to New Year

Happy New Year!

More Christmas lights have appeared in the main public areas in Nerja. These are the beautiful lights on the Balcon de Europa.

The christmas decorations have been cut back this year owing to the present financial climate. There are fewer than previous years and, apparently, the ayuntamiento are hoping that individual store holders pull their fingers out to make their own stores look extra special this year to make up for the reduced street decorations. The roundabouts have had a makeover this last day though – a lovely snowman decorates a large roundabout coming into Nerja!

A morning walk along the coastline.  Several small fishing boats were nearby and, further out to sea, a large cruise liner could be seen on the horizon.
