Meet Active Janet!

Say a fond farewell to Lazy Ass, Lame Ass, Sorry Ass Janet and hello to Active Janet!  She kind of sounds like an ancient Barbie Doll!  Yes, siree, Janet is kicking it up a notch in the activity department!

She has always done lots of walking.  In addition, Janet who is as flexible as a 2 x 4 is now been back at Yoga 3 times a week since March.

  Now they have a trip planned to the U.K. and plan to do as much of the Cotswold Way as time will permit.  They will be based in one place and walk a portion of the Way each day and take public transportation back to their car.

On top of that, Air Canada had a big seat sale on.  Phil suggested that instead of going to Hawaii in the New Year they should go to Southern Spain on a bike vacation.  Never mind that Janet has barely been on her bike in a year and Phil doesn't even own a bike, it is now a confirmed plan.  They booked with Andalucian Cycling Experience who offer many different cycling options - Seniors, Leisure, Road Trips, Mountain Biking and Training Camps.  Only option missing is Full On Lame Ass!

The area circled is really close to where they will stay, which is the village of  Montecorto.  They are booked in a "Villa", but Janet is pretty certain the word villa in Spain is less glamorous than our version of villa.  The circled village Ronda has been voted one of the most beautiful villages in Spain.

Our super neighbours, Cynthia and Derek had some people in for drinks and finger food.  They live at the very end of our street, facing Monteith, but actually on Bowker.  Janet said it was really nice to meet some close by neighbours we normally don't socialize with.

They have a beautiful back garden.

One of the more enthusiastic guests was their pup Riley.   Sussing out the situation.  What should I go for?

OK...time to dine!

"This is delicious!"

Janet and I go every second day to feed the fish in Ken and Karen's pond.  They are super happy to see us!

Janet made what she thought was this really yummy dish.  It was from Smitten Kitchen and consisted of cherry tomatoes with zucchini, corn and parmesan cheese baked in a buttery crust.   Janet thought is was pretty good but Mr. Iron Chef Phil declined to agree.

Eh..what the F does he know?

That's it!  I'm all done!  Next post - buckle up your seat belts!  It's going to be about local building demolitions!  Janet says you know you are old when you think this kind of shit and documentaries are riveting!
