I realise that when I began this
Blog I promised daring adventures and mildly entertaining travel tales –
however, there’s very little I can say about today other than it was
disgracefully lazy. After summoning the strength to walk ten minutes to a nice
beach, we arrived, lay by the sea for an hour and came back to the apartment
where we sat and, though I hate to admit it, read Harry Potter all day. I do
realise that I’m now in my twenties and should probably have left Harry behind
but Rory and I were discussing how smart J.K. Rowling must have been to write
and interlink all seven books and we sort of decided that we’d read the books
and see if we had missed any subtle hints or references in the early books to
the later books. I know, we are out of control. So we’ve devised a highly
sophisticated system whereby we both read the same page and Rory nudges me when
it’s time to turn the page.
Don’t judge, it’s quite fun and
that’s what holidays are for, isn’t it? Being lazy and reading books? Either
way, we’re enjoying ourselves and it’s impressive the amount of subtle hints
and references J.K has managed to slip in. But I won’t ramble on... wouldn’t
want to keep Harry waiting, would I?
