We have a bunch of party people coming to town this weekend to liven up our small quiet beach town for a few afternoons.
It starts today, which is Tuesday, and goes through till Tuesday next week.
I suppose it is Mardi Gras time in the states so this is our version over here on the southern Spanish coast of a beautiful country close to the French mountains separating the more than one countries. I welcome all of the absurd people coming here and am a bit gleeful to see their costumes and watch their absurd antics. If it gets too much I’ll retreat to our air conditioned flat which is quiet and far away from all of the chaos. I live in the center of the village on a quiet street so it’s fantastic that I can be lake house in a few minutes to a quiet sanctuary. My central heat and air component acts as a colorless noise generator drowning out all of the sounds from outside. The only noise it doesn’t block out totally is the sound of fireworks that all of us sometimes have in this town. Spanish people seem to love their fireworks, but their dogs assume a bit differently about it. A lot of people live here without air conditioning in the summers and I have no idea how they sleep at evening when the temperature outside is 90 F! I tried it a single summer time with more than one fans blowing on myself and others and I was consistently waking up in a pool of sweat. Hopefully, all of us live and all of us learn as all of us age in life. That’s how it’s post to be, right? Haha. Yeah, I said post to be.
