Holiday weather - Day 37

It seems that as soon as you have a holiday by the beach it rains. Our stretch of 12 sunny days came to an end when finally there was sand and nice water to swim in. Typical of holiday towns, Llafranc is quiet in off-season, but particularly so when it rains.

The dank start to the day was a blessing though, as Gail wasn't feeling too well and I had to work on a massive sleep deficit. Our travel budget deficit may start to improve now that we are in Spain, emphasised when I bought a glass of wine that was twice the size for half the price of England.

Today we took advantage of the break in the weather to go for a walk before black clouds had us scuttling back to our hotel. Gail has curled up with a book........beach holiday indeed.

The hotel is very comfortable and seems to have a large compliment of older English people. Most of the rest of the town seems to be closing up for the winter as October approaches. We have watched a fleet of boats being hauled out of the water to be cleaned and taken to their winter homes.
