Espanol

I'm in Spain at the moment, visiting family and enjoying some Spanish sunshine with the boyfriend. The last few days have been a little cloudy and I was doubting whether or not I was going to get a tan. I couldn't very well go back to Southampton white after boasting abut the natural tan I was going to get.

Nevertheless today the sun shone high in the sky and definitely made up for the last few days. I covered myself in sun-cream, and armed with bottles of water, magazines and snacks we headed for the pool and spent the whole day sunbathing. I braved the pool but in just May the water was quite honestly freezing, but it had to be done, I manned up and took a running jump in to the water.

It's so nice to spend a few days away from home, in another country especially with some family you have not seen for some time. My Auntie, Uncle and cousins moved to Spain about 7 years ago, where they live on the side of a little mountain in southern Spain. When I say mountain, it isn't really but it's difficult to explain exactly what it is and therefore mountain seems to to be the best way to describe it.

After a day in the sunshine I'm definitely in need of a good nights sleep before some more serious tanning tomorrow. I'm going to cut this one short but there are several other blogs to look out for in the next week as inspiration has definitely developed from this little holiday, so watch this space.
