La Gunilla Duquesa

June 28th, 2011

We are busy updating our website with details on all the urbanisations in the area and I have to say, I’m learning a lot. Even though I first came to the area 18 years ago and have lived here for the past 8 years, I still don’t know exactly where all these urbanisations are. I [...]

Manilva Lunar Eclipse

We walked [...]

The Fog is back…….

This is the view from the office today!! I left home in Manilva, 5 minutes up the hill, where it was blue sky and brilliant sunshine but as I descended, I was shrouded in mist! Sea mists are quite common here in the summer and normally burn off quite quickly but this one looks like [...]
