Granny sleeps it off

The view from ML’s Room.

Hello All.

And I am home.
And it was fun.
And I am glad it is over.

ML likes to eat at nine at night.
Which meant we didn’t finish until eleven or later .
Then I would have to drive home.
The only one on the road.
And I went through red traffic lights in certain places.
I wasn’t sitting there all alone in some of those areas.
Some evenings, by the time I had showered, it was one in the morning.
And I had to get up at five for work.
After three or four days of this I was finished.

Spending the weekend at the hotel was super.
I loved every moment of it.
ML wasn’t impressed.
She never is.
I am used to it.
I just find it sad that she can’t seem to enjoy everything like I do.

They had an Iron Man competition over the weekend I was there.
Thousands of people on the beachfront right in front of the hotel.
And ML’s room overlooked the whole thing.
The loudspeakers started at six in the morning.
My room overlooked the car park and over to the harbour.
I heard very faint voices.
Coming out of my cupboard!
Once I realised I wasn’t going crazy they didn’t worry me.

This is the smoking bar in the hotel.
We spent quite a lot of time there.
Very elegant and peaceful.

This is the reception area.

A really nice hotel.
The only complaint I had was the food in the hotel restuarant.
It was definitely not five star material.

I’ll show you more photos tomorrow.
Don’t want to overload you today.
Even the ladies room in the hotel.
I am easily impressed.

We drove along the coast.
And had tea and scones.
Very nice.
We spent a lot of time in the casino.
Not so nice.
Though I DID recoup some of my losses.

I had one moment of panic.
I was sitting in the car waiting for ML.
Decided to put my recharged batteries back into my camera.
Couldn’t see the plus and minus sighns.
Thought I was going blind.
Then I realised I had my sunglasses on.
Put on my reading glasses and I could see again!
Bear with me.
My eldest grandson turned 21 the other day.
They are getting old.
