I have been here for 2 weeks and its time for a little housekeeping (also Eve is coming and I would like the apartment to look its best). Time to clean toilets, sweep and wash the floor and generally tidy up. The weather co-operated; grey and drizzly.
Thought I'd post a few pictures of the apartment (with Angela's consent)
 |
Living/kitchen/dining room |
 |
Outside the window is the courtyard area with table and chairs. |
 |
The heater/air conditioner is on the wall over the TV. The washing machine is in the kitchen. |
 |
I've been sleeping in the master bedroom which has an ensuite bathroom with a shower. |
 |
This is the other bedroom with a bathroom across the hall, also with a shower, |
 |
and the dryer is also in the room. |
 |
Although quite warm (about 18 deg) the clouds kept rolling in, sometimes getting stuck on the mountains, and dropping light rain now and then. |
 |
I took a couple of breaks during the day, in between showers, and walked the docks and the harbour. This lovely wooden boat had been rafted on to a fishing boat but had now moved to a dock. |
 |
Wooden hull, mast, spars, tiller etc, etc |
 |
Wooden blocks. |
 |
Morwenna. Even her name is beautiful. I had assumed it was Spanish but, on googling it, found out its Cornish. |
I just looked the boat up on the internet and she is for sale! Sleeps 12. Only 250,000 Euro,
Here's the link to take a look
As I didn't do anything particularly interesting today I will post pictures of some of the sculptures that are down on the harbourside, near the tram station.

What a sweet apartment! It is getting really hard to stay sensible and not book a ticket to come visit - luckily the flights are still about $1000, way too much. But I will be in trouble if a seat sale happens.
