Costa del Sol instead of World Championship Nordic Ski

Yesterday we abandoned our flat in Oslo, and let the World Skiing Competition be the responsibility for the family from Wales. We left the winter and minus 18 C and landed in Andalusia to plus 20C.
This morning at 7:30 am the sun rose from the horizon of the Mediterranean Sea. We could expect another beautiful sunny day with temperatures over 40c in the sun.

Our daily exercise walk along the beaches started the first day. In this weather we see no problem getting early out of bed and perform a speedy (?) walk at the Paseo Maritime.

After approximately 3.5 km we turned around the Peseta-sculpture and returned home.
106 minutes was the track record this morning. It will be interesting to see if the condition improves during the coming weeks making the time under the 100 minute limit. At least we have to ignore the photo-stops during the stroll.

Cell Phone Study
A new study shows that talking on a cell phone for more than 45 minutes at a time changes brain activity... especially after you get punched in the face by the guy next to you on the bus for talking on a cell phone for 45 minutes.



$5 Gas??
Americans are now living in fear of $5 per gallon gasoline. On the other hand, those kinds of prices could keep Lindsay Lohan off the road.
