I use to think I was an avid reader (at least when I am not
working a rotational job) but I use to think I was a sexy bastard so I have seriously
flawed thinking.
I had no idea that Don Juan was Mr. Juan. I thought that
Spanish rascal was named Don Juan but I had to sign a legal document in Spain
and noticed it was Don Francis John MacDonald. Now the lawyer was a really hot
young female so I just assumed there was a message there. Boy was I wrong. So
from the you learn something every day file. And what I learned yesterday was
that the young, hot, female lawyer thinks I am a gargoyle.
I went back to Ronda. I think Hemingway wrote about the
bullfighting there. I was there a long time ago and it was one of the places
that I assumed that I would never see again but alas and alack I was there a
couple of days ago. Charming as ever and always worth a visit. I was also back
in Spain which is always a nice visit. The Costa Del Sol has its charms but you
have to look for them. So many developments with expats all over the world with
a huge British population so it has a tendency to lose it Spanish authenticity but
it just call for a little more exploring. Perfect weather here. Locals
complaining about the cold when it is 20 degrees out. Night are cool this time
of year however getting down to 14 degrees, which I find refreshing. The Costa Del
Sol is stilling smarting for the recession and the condo crisis but is clawing
its way back. As far as Western Europe goes it is fairly cheap especially this
time of year. A decent three stat hotel on the beach with breakfast was 35
euros a night.
