I'm back! Can't say I'm chuffed about it, I mean, I left a sunny 30-degree-on-average day and arrived at, you know the rest of the sentence - grey sky, rain and cold. I'm very happy to be reunited with my babydog though, couldn't stand being away from him any longer. And my mum, of course. (She reads my blog)

I had a fantastic time. Spent an amazing week in Algarve, beach hopping and sunbathing in gorgeous sunny, white sandy beaches, and eating/drinking yummy stuff. Then moved onto another place and visited a Sea World place, the Zoo, and a huuuuge worldwide fair that happened to be on in Lisbon, full of lovely jewellery and local arty things from different countries.

We also went to a club on the beach and danced til 5 in the morning, drinking black vodka (yum) and having a good catch-up with my cousin. And also went to a Moroccan place where we smoked vodka and strawberry.

A song that reminds me of my holiday is:

It kept playing on the radio while we were travelling to all these gorgeous places.

The only bad thing was the way back home. After waiting for about an hour in a queue to board, somebody came out and said there was a problem with the fuel and we better sit down while it's being fixed. That was when my tranquilizers stopped working. When we finally got on the plane, the captain told us that we were 210 kilos over the weight limit and asked for volunteers to leave the plane. Honestly I was the first volunteer, but managed to keep myself calm (ish) and stay. Then after two couples left, he said "it's very, very important that you pay attention to the safety instructions as the winds are strong and we are very heavy". That's when I lost it. But after the air hostess reassured me that we were fine and it was safe to fly, I felt a bit better. Not a very nice experience, I must say.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'll get my puppy and go cry in a little corner. I think I have that disease where you feel depressed when the weather's crap. As well as post-holiday depression. Or I just plain hate the rain.

Love,

Mon xx
