17^th – 21^st May 2013

“The fair breeze blew,
The white foam flew,
And the forrow followed free”

(Coleridge 1797)

Well for 3 days it blew and blew with wind speeds close to 40K. It was still sunny and fairly warm but you couldn’t ride bikes or swim so we went on a few walks along the cliff tops towards San Jose. Yesterday (Monday) was hot so we rode to San Jose on our bikes and then went to the beach in the afternoon.

It was a bit of a shock this morning, after raining for most of the night, many of the pitches were a couple of inches under water, the rain continued all day…did someone mention that this is a warm desert?
