I'm here because it's a place where I want to be.

What do I do with my life - still pondering that, keep exploring the possibilities I suppose...

I do have another more personal moblog Vivupclose

Take a look at my daughter Beth's website...

food for thought...

Everyone, in some small sacred sanctuary of the self, is nuts. -Leo Rosten, author (1908-1997)

We think caged birds sing, when indeed they cry. -John Webster, playwright (c. 1580-1634)

There are two kinds of light -- the glow that illuminates, and the glare that obscures. -James Thurber, writer and cartoonist (1894-1961)

The artist brings something into the world that didn't exist before, and he does it without destroying something else. -John Updike, writer (1932-2009)

Some people become so expert at reading between the lines they don't read the lines. -Margaret Millar, novelist (1915-1994)

There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest. -Elie Wiesel, writer, Nobel laureate (b. 1928)

Penultimate morning...

(viewed 283 times)
A look round before breakfast...

Had a second massage at 9am - a little man had walked around on Wednesday and asked and I'd said no thankyou but then thought why not so had 2 50 min's full body massages for 50 euros. £'s and euros were accepted everywhere but the rate wasn't as good in the fixed price shops as it was in the bank - mind you have bank charges etc so it doesn't make much difference. The euros were in my holiday purse so it wasn't like drawing money out :)

The food was very good

Just took a few shots...
There was always an interesting assortment of breads;
Most mornings I started with a dish of lovely creamy natural yogurt and fruit.
It was hard to resist an omelette with choice of ingredients.
The beach grill (pic first thing)served freshly cooked veg.
The Oasis beach bar had a great range and lunchtime and did some special evenings - this was 'Asian Night'.
Last night I celebrated by wearing my virtually antique top - 70's anyway - for our last dinner!

Fabulous clear water

The beach was sand and crushed shells. The light fragmented in the water. This jelly fish was rather pretty. On the way back to the boat we saw 2 'lionfish'!

Paradise

Paradise - a private beach on Giftun Island, where we had lunch then whiled away a couple of hours. Barbara walked along the beach and was lucky enough to see some dolphins!
We also had our best cup of coffee here even if it was a bit pricey!

The colours were amazing... we stopped for a second swim

(viewed 294 times)
Hoping for some pictures that were taken with an underwater camera during this swim. Wish I had realised they were selling instant underwater cameras! The swim was amazing there was a tall coral stack very near the boat which I slowly swam round - there were so many different fish including angel fish, parrot fish and zebra fish, pipe fish and many others. The coral was beautiful. A little further from the boat I swam along a coral valley. Stunning.
