Ok, last Sunday I was at the hotel....very busy getting organized, looking at apts, very active and aggressive...on the move....making things happen....my kind of Sunday...but now...WOW.. I have no work to do!! I'm used to going into the office on Sunday... I liked to prepare for Mondays, clean up my mail, organize my Monday so when I came in I could hit the ground running.... NOT HERE! I have no car!! The office here is a 15 minute drive (you might think that could cross the island but the traffic here is....well, anytime of day here is like 5pm on NWExpressway x 2 !) and I can do as much off my laptop here as I can at the office...but that is really very little today. So, don't tell anyone...I'm going to just walk around the area a bit more... all of the following is within 5 minutes of my door... I have no view from my apt but all of this is right here.....
|
A party boat !! Where do I call ?????? |
|
Wider view of the boat... looks like about 100 peeps on board
|
I'm standing about 100' from some of the apartments in my complex, they have the above view some of them...not too shabby. Across this bay is a fort........and they shoot cannons like 3x a week from there...what the hell are they shooting at ???? Beats me !

Fort Across the waterway |

Closer view of the fort

Obviously summer here is swimming time....its all around and I'm going to have to break down and get wet soon.....but...not today....
|
Ladders cemented into the rocks - pretty clever |
|
I want to join them - notice how YOUNG most are??
|
There are literally thousands of STUDENTS here.... on vacation? NOPE They are here from all over Europe to study --- what do you think they are all studying??? It is the same thing for all of them..... ENGLISH!!! Yep....many schools here for one purpose...to teach English... maybe I can get a second job??? hahahahaahaa NOPE - no time for that!
There is this bridge which crosses over a road from my apt complex and then leads to the swimming area above...but this bridge is quite unique in its own way....
|
Bridge to nowhere - literally - BUT..this ain't Alaska Ms. Palin!! |
|
View from edge of bridge looking across the bay - notice the padlocks? |
|
This is what lovers do here...they put a padlock on the bridge and throw the key in the water...how romantic...hmmm, I did see one or two padlocks with the keys still in it -- I don't think that's a good sign !! hahahaaha
|
Couple more random pics.....
|
This is a part of my apt complex |
|
Students students everywhere |
Well, that's it for today.... thinking of posting just a couple of times a week for a bit... don't want to totally bore everyone... I'll get some office pictures perhaps tomorrow...
Malta Mike - out
