Saturday , Koala Sprint

Too cryptic a title? So it was the same carbo loading brekkie again and then onto a train and to the bus station. We just missed our train and had to wait 2 min 33 seconds for another. Outragous. Then it was a ride up the coast to Tossa De Mar. Walking amongst the ancient Roman fort, i finally began to piece together World colonisation. You see, on arrival Annette wanted a cup of tea. Four hours later she still wanted tea as she hadn't found any yet. My theory is that some poor Roman Emperor got up one morning and his wife wanted tea. Years later and after conquering a large portion of the World, he finally found some and took it back to the missus who promptly advised that she doesn't like Earl Grey and would like him to get her English Breakfast. So then he invaded Britain.

Anyway the scenery was good but as its Winter all the shops are closed. The last part of the trip was spent looking for hot chocolate. None was found, but tea was captured at the bus stop cafe which is where, on tv, I saw Messi jogging slowly at training followed by the coach at a news conference. I concluded that he is injured and won't be playing tomorrow night.

Bus and train back to a known hot chocolate joint with a huge line of waiting patrons out the front. We ( the royal kind ) decided it was off to a jewellery shop, seen briefly earlier in the week. How long is forever? For the fifth time Annette spent her birthday money. Dragonfly jewellery in hand we headed back to last nights sports store find. So in two hours we looked in two shops and blew the budget. Then to a little restaurant for the buffet tapas. Different buffet though. They bring the food to you. Six full plates in all. I wonder, but don't want to know, just how much weight we have put on.
