On a Clear Day You can See Forever!

Or at least that's how it feels here in Calella -- the tourist capital of the Costa del Maresme. The beaches stretch for miles and Susan and I are relaxing after our busy week, just watching the sun glistening off the water and waiting for a breeze now and then. We are thoroughly enjoying ourselves.

Apparently, Calella (Spain) is one of the prime destination resorts in all of Europe. An old lighthouse, inaugurated in 1859, is situated high on a hill atop the entry to the town and we are told it is one of Calella's most familiar landmarks. Sharp-edged cliffs have been carved out by the ever crashing of the sea's ebb and flow. It's an awesome place.

Guess it is time for me to slap some more tanning lotion on Susan. I'll try to write more tomorrow, but that beach seems to be calling my name.
