This is the villa we stayed in, it was quite impressive. Photo taken at night.
On our girlie day shopping trip we came to a compromise with Paul, he could visit the local beer factory in the morning and then join us for shopping in the afternoon. Plans didnt quite work out but the girls and I met Paul after his tour in the "tasting room". Lesley would have loved this, (not sure who the lady in white is though).
Next it was the new shopping centre, we started off at the bottom (three floors of shops) and that is where the toilets were. We were thrilled to find the ice skating rink on the bottom floor
as well
Here we are on our way up to the shops
The new shopping centre was advertised as having over 120 retail outlets, ohh we were so excited.
The new shopping centre was advertised as having over 120 retail outlets, ohh we were so excited.What all the advertisements forgot to mention was that there were facilities for over 120 outlets, with approx 30 being occupied. There were 4-5 cafes there as well, oops. But we did manage to get handbags at bargin prices and we all had a lovely linch at TGIFs. A good day in the end .
The weather was great apart from a couple of afternoon showers. Of course if you are going to get wet in the rain, you may as well be in the pool as well
that is what paul believes, and just to prove it 
Here is the most recent pictures of the girls
