Holiday

The holiday season is creeping up on us. Jake has finished school, and enjoyed his first day of summer holiday today. Whilst they were in the village, N&J bumped into Owen with his Gran in the Post Office getting some dollars ready for next week. Only five days and we'll be there.

Spoke to Mum and Dad this evening, and they're off early tomorrow morning for their summer visit to Es Moli.

As I sit here this evening the rain is coming down, but the forecasters seem to suggest that the next few days should be dry and warm. Hopefully the weather will stay fine and dry for Jake's cricket course on Monday and Tuesday. Mind you, we should probably prepare ourselves for some rain over the next few weeks. At this time of year it is pretty hot and humid in Florida, and some days by the middle of the afternoon an almighty storm comes rolling in to clear the air, and for a little while it rains, it really really rains. The last time we were there in the summer it was around the time of Jake's 4th birthday, and on a few occasions we got well and truly soaked to the skin when we were caught out in the downpours. Still, at least it will be hot.
