Cullera

"Iiiiihh!", I heard myself say as the small wave broke between my feet. Clara had told us we had to try the water, saying it was not as cold as the river in Norrbotten where we swam on Midsummer. Johannes didn't seem very convinced. She insisted we should taste it too, to see how salty it is. I declined politely. We were standing ankle deep in the Mediterranean water. My face felt like an orange, absorbing the strong sunlight after a long time in the shade.
They grow a lot of orange trees here.

This looks absolutely fantastic. To someone too used to the Swedish darkness standing with feet in any kind of water is too hard to imagine.

Que rico poder disfrutar de un clima totalmente distinto en una época de oscuridad y grados bajo cero. Son afortunados!!!. La playa ahí se ve bastante agradable, sin olas al parecer. Lo único que les faltó fue el traje de baño y el flotador, estaba para darse un buen baño.
Suerte para el 2008.
