Welcome to Global Community Park!
With everything going on in the world right now, I think that our global park is in need of a restructure! It'll be interesting to see what happens with Greece and the EU.
My goal for myself, once I adjust to this new lifestyle of mine, is to start traveling the globe. I envision it about 6 months from today. Right now I'm really enjoying my first time living outside of the US.
CHANGE OF BODY
Today is a beautiful day in paradise, but many days are overcast when you live this close to the beach. The ocean sounds are so calming and regulating. My friend who also lives here called to ask me if it's normal for her menstrual cycle to be light, then heavy, then light (I apologize to the men who are reading this). I said yes it is, but she told me hers is usually another way. I told her that the tides and the fresh air here have a lot to do with regulation of her body flow.
CHANGE OF SOUL
As for me, I've been very calm and relaxed while here. I'm not on the go all the time. I actually stop everyday and step out onto my patio to watch the sunset. Then I step out on the other side of my house to watch the sunrise in the morning. I have a patio set on the sunset side and I plan to put one on the sunrise side so I can have breakfast there and watch the sunrise. Whenever I return to the states for business meetings, I can't wait to get back to paradise. Granted, there are more activities to do in the US but, also more stress.
CHANGE IN FINANCES
I'm finally catching up with my finances and will have the extra money to better enjoy the lifestyle here sooner than expected. We have a stable less than a quarter mile away, where we can rent a horse and ride on the beach for $10 USD per hour. Also, the shopping here is really cheap. I plan to learn to play golf on the golf course, which is about 3 miles away, for $6 USD per day.
NOT ALWAYS PARADISICAL
What don't I like here? Around, 3:30pm it gets VERY hot. The sun is over the ocean and with the ceiling to floor windows, it gets very hot and stays hot for 4 - 5 hours. Also, as you know already (if you're a steady reader of my blog), I don't like the cobblestone streets. Although, very pretty and Mediterranean style, they hurt your feet when you walk on them and well, they are everywhere!
Okay, I wanted to keep it light today. It is Sunday after all! I hope you're enjoying your day and relaxing too. If you are, good for you! If you're not!! SHAME on you! GO AND RELAX NOW!!
Here are some pictures to help you relax.

Once again working the amateur photographer skills. Always seeking the photo ops as I walk the grounds.
