Back to Sopelana

The first day back to the Basque region, we managed a trip to the beach. It was a little chilly but we still managed to run through the waves as they came in.

UPDATE:  We all went for a dip- some of in suits, others of us completely nude.  We had the p[alce to ourselves, and then went into town for some great pintxos.  The place holds special memories for all of us.  Not just The Long Board, but   sand castles and a getaway.

She arrives!

Dorothy Wijnanda Park has finally arrived. A healthy, petite (6lb, 7 oz) baby was born at 1:18 pm today, 28th of June. Baby and mother are both recovering from the delivery at Kingston Hospital in fine form.
