I arrive

So I left Wednesday late afternoon and arrived midday Thursday in Sevilla.  Flights were on time.  I had used a nearby hotel as a drop off point for my luggage which was hefty hefty hefty - 118 pounds total. On Thursday night and Friday morning I moved the luggage one piece at a time to our apartment. Then I spent the rest of Friday unpacking and getting mostly organized. I did crash for a nap mid afternoon but am pretty much in the right time zone this morning  (Saturday). I went to have coffee and a bagel for breakfast around 9AM and then to the grocery store. I was back home by 11:30 or so with supplies for lunch and dinner and tomorrow's breakfast as well.... 


not many folks out at 9 AM on a Saturday morning- LOL





The sun shades in our courtyard are finished for the season of the hottest weather but are still up around the corner... 



Spent my day finishing hte unpacking and putting away and catching up on emails and texts etc... plan on a relaxing Sunday. Starting up with Leslie (our trainer) on Monday via zoom. Wednesday I am going to Portugal to visit Laurie. So I should have a bunch of fun photos from her town - we have a couple of nice places to dine picked out... and by Saturday Oscar arrives!

On Sunday I went to coffee, got gelato, went to the fancy Chinese store fora few items for organizing the bathroom and later took a walk and picked up salad to have with dinner.... not too exciting but it was a beautiful day and I got to sit outside and enjoy my coffee....



unfortunately I chose the wrong size at the Chinese store- will need to return :-(  I was seeking to add to the three spoons of the size at the top and only ended up adding to the size that I already had of the "soup" spoon.


And no sooner than I got here- actually less than a week- I leave.... heading to Portugal to visit a friend. So off I go on an adventure in driving in Spain (as opposed to being the navigator) luckily it is basically turn right out of the parking garage = make two more right turns so that you are basically back where you started - then go straight on that road for 250 kilometers LOL... so fairly stress free...
