Day 13

Day 13 Relaxing by the pool
Woke early at 5 am and read my book. Val had gone to breakfast early because she was reading the Australian time and thought she must have slept through. Unfortunately Val had tummy issues during the day.
We had breakfast and I asked the breakfast customers if anyone had a bag scale, so we could weigh the bags and if necessary buy more luggage allowance. The young man from the Gold Coast had one and lent it to us. Mine will be ok. Chris’s was well under weight.

Following the weigh in, it was time to relax by the pool for the whole day. So tough! Reading, sewing, swimming, emailing. Lunch delivered. And yet again I was the “lucky” one. I ordered a chicken steak with vegetables. After everyone else had their sandwiches (not necessarily what they ordered) he came out to say- ‘no chicken”. So I had beef steak instead. 

The rest of the day was just relaxing and more relaxing. In the late afternoon Val and Pauline started getting their things together to see if it all fitted in their bags. Chris went to watch a movie and I typed up our day of doing nothing much.
We went to Marlo’s for dinner, but Val stayed home. Another delicious meal for everyone. This time I got a photo of the chief Chef. We were amazed at the number of couples sitting at tables each with phone/ ipad in hand and NO conversation occurring!
No conversation during the entire time they were sitting there.
When walking home we stopped to look in the shop window at TS- very upmarket and some strange items for sale.

Home to finish typing up today’s news and download the photos. Pauline went to bed early.
bag/ shoe?
