The blog is going to be strange right now. We are in Spain and that puts us half a day ahead of the homestead. Castelldefels is lovely. It isn’t even 11 AM and the 65 degree weather feels more like a pleasant 75 would in Arizona with a breeze coming off the ocean that makes it all the better. We haven’t truly experienced the beach. We walked the boardwalk yesterday and learned quite a bit about the up and down hilly nature of the area. After 15 hours of travel and shifting 9 hours worth of time zones my body gave out by 7pm. So, we have yet to truly experience the place.
Today is going to be that day.
Back to the point of earlier, the blog is going to be strange for a while, because I am exploring new places and new ideas and new forms. Some of this will wander into travel writing. Some of this will be reflective excursions about living in a new kind of situation (the host family of this B&B is a story above us in the home and must pass our area anytime they come or go), more will bit slices of micr fiction taken from the course work of the summer. It is a new day with new adventures, even 50 years into this long and pleasant life.
I’m excited for what today brings.
