Today though, I pulled myself together, drugged myself up with Lemsips and we went walking at the coast. <\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t been to the Cap Norfeu since Christmas Eve 2005 and Geoff even longer ago, so we decided to go there. The further east you went today, the better the weather and I predicted that the gap between two fronts would give us sunny weather. It was windy, but once you were out of it, it was hot. <\/p>\n<p>We walked all round the cape, soaking in the views of the sea and snow covered Pyrenees. Visibility was incredible. There was no haze at all, so you could see every village between where we were and the mountains.

It was so warm I went for a paddle in the sea and regretted not bringing my bikini. A French group had a family swim and volleyball match &#8211; which is unusual. It&#8217;s usually only the mad Brits and Germans who will swim after November. <\/p>\n<p>Tonight dinner with my parents and happy new year to everyone.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.judithmole.net\/photo_galls\/311209\/index.html\"target=_blank> See photos of today.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been struggling with a cold since Christmas and although we&#8217;ve been meaning to go to the beach and make the most of the warm weather, I just haven&#8217;t felt up to it.
