60’s paradise

The Albatross

Tuesday 27 February 2024

Today was a lazy day, we’re spending a couple of days just bumming around the coast before resuming days of driving. So, after some nice smoked salmon scrambled eggs, we pottered along the rugged coast going for short strolls. Don’t be fooled by the sunny pictures, it was very frosty and the wind was howling. We wish we’d put the warm hats in the car.






We went to our first American Pharmacy today, as we’ve been past lots and couldn’t work out why they were the size of supermarkets. The reason is they basically are. You can go booze shopping in there, pick up some laundry detergent, storage containers, snacks, stationary and your drugs.

Finally, back home for a rather late BBQ lunch, which we chose to do inside as it was still cold and windy outside. I also have a humungous well-equipped kitchen straight from the 60’s. In fact, the entire place is an immaculately maintained 60’s home including the furniture. There have been minor updates of technology such as appliance, but the core of the house is straight out of a 60’s dream home catalogue. It truly is wonderful.





Tuna is currently baking in the sunlight streaming in the bay window like a happy cat. She has a glass of Californian Chardonnay and is looking very pleased with herself.
