Herald Tribune



Day 6: And Relax time.

Morning Exercise and Headstanding will be the daily wake-up routine. We're just gonna' hang out and take it easy, enyoing the hospitality (see pix).

My fav. daily Financial Times is not available at the hotel so my new favorite is the "International Hearald Tribune"--the global NY Times paper that also comes with an English insert of El Pais. GOOD STUFF! Also checking out some of the usual UK papers, and another good one is The Times (Voted Newspaper of the year).

Burpees in the Sand!



Day 5 and time for 50 burpees! I waited until afternoon, and It was a sweaty and sandy set as I completed todays mission on the beach. I wanted them as correct as possible and did 55 to cover. Time 6:25 min. The first 25 was off in great speed, but the rest took some time as the heat took its toll--but who wants to complain about warm weather! Also found a great spot for headstanding on the beach next to the lifeguard hut!

Today's pick



There's a great dinner buffé over-here (see some of the choices). Great meat and fish selections --lots of chicken, veal, salmon etc and healty alternatives with lot's a vetgetables! The restaurant keep a lot of vatiation and theme nights mexican, asian with the best of quailty and taste.

The daily lunch routine: Chicken breast, salad, and melon; alternative Grilled Salmon.
