Picnic on Burriana with Steve, Ruth, Emily, Harriet, and James April 1, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — Kate @ 5:00 pm

We spent Saturday picnicking on the beach with our friends Ruth, Steve, and their three kids Emily (15), Harriet (13), and James (8). Wells and I play tennis with Ruth and Steve (both in their early 40’s). They are from Whales and moved to Nerja four years ago. They sold their thriving Bed and Breakfast in Whales at the perfect time and relocated to Nerja for the sole reason of having a simple, but quality lifestyle. Steve does not work much and they get to hang out with their kids all of the time. Their outlook on life is compelling and refreshing. All of the kids share one bedroom and absolutely love it. They go to Spanish school, have Spanish and English friends, and speak three languages.

It was a gorgeous day and James instantly became Wells’ best friend. Wells handed the camera to him and James took over 200 pictures. Here are just a few.

If you are wondering how I uploaded these pictures in a nifty slideshow pattern you can thank Wells. I was having a wheel barrel full of problems getting our pictures to properly upload into my blog with all of the existing applications out there. So what did Wells do? He just wrote some code and uploaded a button for me to push on my computer. Unbelievable! Just click on the big picture and then you can easily click through the rest.

    Kate,

    Are Ruth and Steve from Blue Whales, Humpback Whales, Orca Whales? Do they blow water from their heads. Or are they from WALES, the country in the UK?

    xoxox ;) ;);)

    They have three children so they are clearly from Humpback Whales. Don’t you know anything, JRW???
