Sunrise
My pool this morning
I dream about it when I'm at home. Yes. I'm probably crazy. I'm sure it helped me on my first adventure after lockdown.
I went into Funchal. The Veterans Day ceremony meant the traffic was gridlocked and the cruise ship passengers puzzled.
I saw the smart elderly gentlemen in their suits and medals. Low key but heartfelt and beautiful.
I did find the bus up to the Jardim Botanico, my second favourite of the main Funchal gardens.
It was quiet, glorious in the perfect light. I pottered, read awhile, and just immersed myself in the magic.
Down near the market I decided to try a new fish restaurant that's allegedly good.
I had the very best scabbardfish sandwich I've had for over eight years. The staff were super and there was so much going on ( a massive, crazy South American family plus lots of other distractions.)
Perfect people watching.
And so, back to my pool.
