Tunnel to the sea side. |
Today, I spend another 18€ on the red bus tour. Can you
believe this is the only affordable mode of transportation in the area for a scooter?
If you had a manual wheelchair there are taxis, but not for my monster. Anyway,
it works. I took the bus and got off at the east town square. I only had about
1.5 hours to look around. I think I got the highlights. It is a beautiful beach
and lots of eateries. Then there are the usual tourist shops. I’m not much for
shopping, so wasn’t too caught up with all that. I could see on a nice sunny
hot day hanging out people watching and having a beverage. As it was, it was
freezing in the wind and sweltering where there was shelter. Canada does not
have the monopoly on strange weather.
I wasn’t quite sure what I was supposed to be seeing. Some
people said they spent 4 hours roaming around. I must be missing something.
Happy hour is very big here. As I said to a friend, there are more pubs here
than in all of Britain, it seems. I am
sure you can guess some people’s pastime when coming here.
If only it was hot.... |
On Mondays, the museum of Archaeology isn’t open, so that
was one thing I may go back to see. I don’t know how big it is, but I am sure
it will be more educational about the area than the local pub. Ha-ha. I had a
coffee and a snack and by that time I had to go back to get the bus home. It
was enough. People watching can be done wherever, whenever.
When I got back to the Vila, I had a drink with some of the
Canadians I have met. We chatted about our adventures. I chatted with a few
other people before I headed back into the room to chill out before bed time.
Booze is so cheap here. A glass of wine (full) is 1.35 €. I wish I were still a
drinker…
Yes, that is a winter coat! |
