Fri.30th. Dec.
Now I'm really angry!! I typed up today's blog and I blinked and it disappeared. Maria says it is saved somewhere but I can't locate it so I'm starting again. We drove from Agrigento to Selinunte today along some decent road, the SS115 and through some gorgeous scenery. This really is a beautiful part of the world, I'm a little disappointed that we're not seeing it in better weather. We found a Lidl's and shopped, filled up with diesel and gas and had a coffee on the way. Arrived about 12.30 and re-acqainted ourselves with Geert and Maria. (and Tessa, the dog.) I think Tessa missed us!! After lunch Jan and I walked into the village and had a good look around, we're hoping to find a restaurant or other venue for new years eve. Not much luck so far. Will try again tomorrow. There are a couple of possibilities. It's a long walk from the site and I have to say that I'm concerned about Jan's hips, which seem to be causing her great discomfort at the moment. I think we need more sunshine. After dinner, shared some wine with Geert and Maria. They amused us with a typical camper van tale of getting stuck in a small town in the mountains and having to be rescued by 2 policemen. Hell of a way to get a parking space close to the market!! We had some fun and I took pictures and a movie. I referred to them as Gert and Daisy, a comic couple from years ago, I hope they didn't take offence, I must explain tomorrow. One day left of 2011. Can start 2012 as a retired man. Can it get any better than this??
