My 2023 Journals.
During 2023, I had some sad times when I lost a few friends and members of my family when they passed away, but I also had great times to balance those out. I was lucky to attend many musical events, fiestas, shows, and travel. I visited three different continents when I went to Africa, South America and Europe on various cruises. I went to five countries and many cities. I saw many fantastic things, crossed off a few things from my bucket list and made many new friends.
The year overall was a good one where the good outweighed the bad, and it gave me the courage to continue travelling and enjoying the world and all it can show me.
This week, I got the results of last week's tests from the Doctor. I took a short trip to Alicante to see Bob Dylan in concert and my friend Cindy arrived from England to stay with me for a holiday.

This week, I started to swim a bit more in the mornings. My sister Karen was staying in Los Alcazares for a week and joined me several times to feed the fish. I bought a few things for my apartment to make my life a bit easier, but I generally just took it easy.

The week started quietly recovering from my cruise around the Mediterranean, which finished last week. I had a few deliveries arrive and some that did not arrive. At the weekend my sister arrived from the UK.

The week started with the delivery of a new combined washing machine and dryer and became a lot more exciting as I set off on a cruise around the Mediterranean on Thursday.

The week started with the very sad news that my friend Sandra had lost her battle with cancer. She was one in a billion and anyone who met her could call themselves a lucky person to have known her. RIP Sandra, you will be sorely missed.

This week was spent mostly working on my computer or sitting and reading my Kindle in the sun. It's great to have the sun back out.
