The weekend is here. Now, where do we go from here?

Hey, the weekend is here and I am just contemplating where to go from here. I was just listening to a radio theme from when I was young "The Five O'clock Whistle." from 96 rock an Atlanta radio station from when I was younger. It brings back memories of fun in the sun in hotlanta from when I was younger. So, now an obvious choice would be to go to the beach here in Spain.  TGIF (Thank Goodness It's Friday).

 When it comes to beaches here there is no lack in choices, In relatively little distances, there is a varieties of different beaches with different landscape, terrain, sand , and water. This is where we reach a dilemma. which beach should we go to. What features do we want to look for in our beach day trip. I would prefer a secluded beach with little to no people palm trees rock cliffs and nothing but the ocean sound to be with the love of my life, but wait..We are in Spain, to find a beach with less than 2,000 people in the heat of June is virtually impossible, OK, it maybe possible in the virtual world. Unfortunately we live in reality. That is in the real world beach in Spain are spectacular but full of everybody with the same beach idea. Thousands of people line the shoreline every morning to evening as a place opens for a towel it is quickly swiped up by the next beach goer who comes a  long. We will go to one about an hour from home, maybe a little more, since there are so many in close proximity. Though, this is going to narrow down our choices somewhat. Mataro, Vila Nova, Sitges, Canet de Mar, Sant Pol de Mar, Where do we go? Barceloneta is a deffinent no. I like mataro, the water drops of quick there and it has a strong current that eats at the stones and shells in the sea, and the sand there is a coarse grain and easy to rinse so I think it is where we will go. Plus it is not too difficult to find parking which is cool. so tomorrow we are off to the beach in Mataro about 30 minutes north of Barcelona.

Hey wait, wait, don't go! it's Friday! What will we do tonight? we may go for a walk and drink on Passeig,, Manresa. we do not know yet. sometimes I miss uninhibited youth with energy that goes on forever. I was thinking to myself today. What has happened to people? I look for things to do and every time it seems people do less. I remember my youth in Atlanta,, never having a lack of events and things to do. And now no matter where you go there is less. maybe it is the crisis or maybe i am just getting old. Who knows? But, I do not fell old yet, at 31. We will find something to do. b-ball and a movie and drinks on passeig sounds good to me. But, first unfortunately it is work as usual and later off to the hort (vegetable garden) to collect some zucchini and what else maybe ripe for the picking. Soon, the fun will  start then it is time to blow that 5 o'clock whistle, though here it will be a 6 o'clock whistle.
