Wednesday 8 April 2009

Have just returned from a hectic working week made more pleasurable by bright blue skies, sunshine and temps of 22c. A treat to be able to dine out by the water's edge at this time of year. April is a lovely time in Gocek apart from everywhere being covered in yellow pine pollen! Everyone is coming awake after a very wet winter and working hard to prepare for the season ahead but they have time to chat over supper or a drink. The plants are beginning to grow again and the progress in one week has been amazing. A bumper crop of lemons again will ensure guests have supplies for gin and tonic and fresh lemonade! We have a newly paved road up from the village which will make walking easier.
