The smell has eased up a bit, and we're told that the North wind will blow hard on Wednesday. They call it 'El Norte' here, as well as on the Caribbean coast. It delivers their winter, cooling off the savana. It also swells the sea and we never know what it will leave behind, or take away. Apparently if we are lucky, the sea will take back the sea grass and leave clean beaches in the next few days. And I really hope it will - so that our little Leo can enjoy his stay here.
Another unpleasant surprise... we had booked a 3 bedroom house for one week with friends who will be visiting at the end of the month, and yesterday I was informed that the house has been rented to someone else for a much longer booking, and we are 'upgraded' to a 4 bedroom house. They give us a choice between 3 houses, so instead of writing my music in my free time during the next week, I will be visiting the houses and managing this situation. I'll try to do this asap and get it out of the way.
Not sure if it's my mood right now, but I feel the weigh of all the organisation required to keep everyone happy. Food, laundry, schooling, banking, work, and now the house thing. I want to be free and smell the flowers! Oh no no no... I don't want to smell anything around here... Anyway, maybe I should just open my music books and see if the world will stop turning!
