Sleeping in was really nice this morning. Liam has put together a real whirlwind tour
and it was great to just be able to lay in bed.
It was well past 9:00 am before I was out of bed. I was awake earlier but lying in bed an
picking up my book to read for a bit was a real luxury.
There had been a problem with the hot water tank so Liam had
arranged to have the plumber come to check out the hot water tank. The gas to the tank is supplied off a large
propane tank which serves all of the condos in the development and it looked
like the tank has not been filled so the pressure was low. The plumber bled the lines and got the system
running which was great.
After a leisurely breakfast and a nice hot shower I fought
the urge to lay down for a nap. Instead
I pulled a chair into the sun and did some reading. I am reading a Michael Crighton novel called
Rising Sun. It is kind of dated and not
quite the page turner he normally puts out.
However it a is pretty easy read and nothing better on an easy day.
This afternoon Liam and Suibhan headed off to do some
shopping so I pulled the bikes out and cleaned the bikes. After the long hard ride up Pico de Veleta
and the long drive back they were covered in road grim. We had taken the seats and bags off the bikes
for the drive back so in addition to cleaning there was some assembly to be done. Bikes are now cleaned and the chains
oil.
Liam and I spent a couple of hours sitting in the sun
enjoying a couple of bike stories and sipping a few beers. It was a very nice enjoyable talking about
rides we would like to do. A
circumnavigation of the Iberian Peninsula was the favoured ride. Maybe in
2019.
Suibhan made a wonderful baked salmon for supper.
I didn’t take pictures today. In fact I didn’t even take any pictures. So I have posted some pictures from other days
