I had just stepped out of the shower this morning when my phone rang, and it was Cecilia. She had come into the city for a doctor’s appointment and called to see if I had plans for the day. I was supposed to be working, but of course I said I hadn’t! She proposed picking me up at taking me to Olivos, where she lives, for the day. Half an hour later we were on our way to her house.

Another friend, Gillian, also lives in Olivos, so we called her to see if she wanted to join us for lunch, and of course she did. It was a bit early, so we took the dog for a lovely walk down by the port, and then came back to Cecilia’s house to wait for Gillian.

We went to a lovely place called Club Sports, in a nearby town called Martinez. The place was lovely, and the setting even lovelier! It was right on the riverbank, and after a delicious lunch we wandered a little by the water before leaving.

Spontaneous outings can be even more fun just by their nature, and this was certainly true today. Gracias, Cecilia!

Well fed and relaxed after a great lunch

Being silly about the elbow-instead-of-hug thing

A bit more sedate, which isn’t at all like either of us!
