Danny's tooth seems to have come through ok, he's back to normal again today. We drove to Santander this morning to pick up my aunt Brenda from the airport. Jamie spotted her plane coming in to land parallel to the car as we were arriving at the airport. It was busy at the airport with Belgian football fans arriving for this evening's international against Spain in Santander.
Jamie had her second rhythmic gymnastics lesson yesterday afternoon, which went very well. Lots of hula hoops and long ribbons.
I got away for a long bike ride yesterday afternoon - 55 km, my longest so far. The route was San Vicente - Unquera (along the coast) - El Mazo (near Panes, on the Potes road) - Merodio - Bielva - Labarces - Roiz - Lamadrid - San Vicente. There were a couple of very long climbs, particularly El Mazo > Merodio and Bielva > La Rehoya, and after the latter all the strength was gone from my legs and I had to soft pedal the various other smaller hills on the way home. It was semi-overcast, warm and humid, and quite pleasant for cycling. The south wind (Scirocco) suddenly appeared in the evening, and is still here today, along with sun and clear skies, so it's very hot and blustery today. This is very good news for Brenda, who at this moment is sitting on the balcony playing snap with Jamie. Last time she was here, last summer, it was raining when she arrived and all the way home from the airport.
