We aren’t going very far at all today. We had intended going to the market at Haria this morning, but when it comes down to it nobody feels like going. The sun is shining, so we get our swimming stuff together and head for the nearest beach on foot.
By the time we get to the beach, it’s raining and some very dark and menacing clouds have gathered. I’m all for getting in the car and driving to the other side of the island to see if the weather is better over there, but my wife’s son persuades me to wait 10 minutes and see if the sun returns. It does. We spend the rest of the day sunbathing, swimming, snorkeling and eating expensive ice creams from the Italian ice cream kiosk on the promenade.
When we eventually return to our apartment, we discover that we’re almost out of beer, so I drive to Lidl to buy some more while my wife cooks dinner.
After we have eaten, my wife and the rest of the gang go shopping for perfume and clothing, while I stay behind to have a shower and a shave – I’m feeling very tired and don’t want to overdo it. Today is the first day of the holiday that I’ve felt that my tremor is close to the surface, and I’m sure it’s because I’m getting over tired. My balance and walking have also deteriorated, and my dyskinesia has been worse today.
