Sunday - 9 September 2018

Aguedulce

I had slept very soundly, but woke at about 4am. I heard that there was action going on outside and, last evening, I had planned to get up and possibly join in a bit of the party scene, but sadly my sleeping body would not move. I drifted off back to sleep. The party was nothing like the disturbances we have had from previous Fiestas. The night club opposite is named El Bribon de la Habana, the Rascal of Havana. It has a pirate theme. It seems to just cater for the youngsters on Friday and Saturday nights. I suspect I have lost my chance!

All the dancing is inside so the noise is contained.

We were very lazy in the morning, just reading the Sunday papers, but I did do some stainless steel cleaning to keep the boat gleaming. More rain came in so it was late afternoon when we were able to promenade along the seafront. We walked 3.5 kilometres and still couldn’t see the end of the beach. 

A group of ladies came by, who were obviously a hen party, having their photos taken by one the marineros, in front of the boats. Then a lady, with her bicycle came selling fruit and salad, presumably from her garden. I suspect she was scraping a living from it, so I was happy to by some fresh figs from her.

It is raining again, as I write, but still hot and humid. It is great to have the air conditioning on the boat!
