Beautiful weather on TENERIFE.

Wednesday 11 February.

 

I made the breakfast again this morning as I gave the running a miss again. Later I worked on my Via Francigena book and edited another 2 days before getting ready for the gym. Moira came with me for the walk; she left me at the gym door and continued further on her walk.

 

I did some arm exercises with the light dumbbell and crunches with my legs up on a big ball. This warmed me up nicely for the workout for my upper body. I did some dumbbell flies and bench presses and felt a twinge in one of my shoulder muscles as if it was pulling. I stopped and did some other exercises that didn't involve these muscles. I finished with a few ab exercises before heading back to the flat. I managed to get in when somebody opened the gate and this saved Moira from coming down.

 

The weather was magnificent today, a cloudless blue sky and very warm. Other people in the complex were already down by the pool sunbathing on the loungers and some in swimming. We sat out on the veranda for lunch and spent the afternoon there reading and working on a crossword. After watching the DVD on the 'Coast to Coast' walk I began to examine the guide book to plan our itinerary. We got an email from Alison in South Africa about the sale of our house there and it seems to be going ahead all right. This might require us to go out there about May so we will have to postpone our 'Coast to Coast' until later in the year.

 

In the evening after the quizzes and dinner I put the Freeview recorder on to watch the rest of the film 'Spartacus' that I started last night. After that there was a nature programme about Alaska. I started to watch it but fell asleep part way through. When I woke up I decided to get to bed, I was very tired for some reason.
