Thursday

We started our day with a lovely breakfast on the rooftop of our hotel. There was a nice cloud cover and a lovely breeze. There was one other couple stay there from Germany.

After breakfast we decided to walk to the monastery. When we checked in the receptionist said we would need to take a cab to the monastery. We looked at how far it was and it was only 4 kms. So we walked. We had a cappuccino at a little cafe outside the monastery.

Unfortunately once we got to the monastery we couldn’t go in because we were not dressed properly. Long sleeves, long pants so we took a picture and headed back.

The walk going and coming was along the coast. Beautiful sites. So many beautiful flowers. The water is so clear. And the clouds were putting on a show.

When we returned we decided to do some errands. And also we wanted to find the clock tower so we started in the direction that we thought it was in. And then realized we passed it. So we tried again and once again passed it. Sigh!! We decided to go down to the bottom and walk along the pier until we found it and go straight up. And it was straight up indeed.

It was worth it though! We could see so much. On our way down we found a cute little cafe and rested with a nice drink. Then started back to the hotel and all the way we saw signs directing us to the clock tower. We were so intent on finding it we didn’t see the signs. It happens in life also, slow down and watch.

We had dinner at a really nice restaurant and it was super inexpensive. We came back to our room and fell promptly asleep.
