We got up a bit later today and after a buffet breakfast headed out to a cloudy morning to have a look around the shops. There is a real market feel to the streets and the shops are keen to negotiate their prices. We both bought some new clothes and Sheree got some jewelry. Most of what was left of the morning and the early afternoon was spend exploring the never ending street of shops (see pic).
After lunch at a cafe that sold some of the biggest meringues we had ever seen (see pic)we headed for the beach as the sky had cleared and it was another hot beautiful. We spent the later part of the afternoon just swimming and sun bathing. The water is the warmest we have experienced yet and the beach gets deep very quickly. We watched a large ferry boat full of passengers arrive nose first straight into the beach where the swimmers were, lower a ladder at the front for the passengers to disembark and then reverse off.
We finished the night off with a meal at the top cafe again. I had a huge plate of spare ribs that this place is renowned for and Sheree had the pork kebab with peanut sauce. We washed it down with a litre of a yummy fruit cocktail called Sangria. then we went back to the beach and got a table on the sand with live music and another cocktail called Mojito. We got back home at 12:30am. What a lovely evening.
