Title: Out and about in San Stefanos in the Autumn
Post by: tonyco1 on November 01, 2009, 03:46:44 AM
Well winter is closing in slowly - who is still in San Stefanos - what is still open this week ???
I know the Mythica Restaurant is going strong - but what is open as November opens in the resort, what is the weather like now?
Warm - or cold - anyone on the beach???

I imagine it would look eerily quiet but not in a horrible way.

I recall seeing a photo album someone published of an out of season San Stef. Possibly Leo's wedding? Teresas did feature heavily in the photos. They gave a good idea of how quiet the village became!

i took some photos on my last day there. All bars packed up and the main street totally deserted. If i was less of a technological muppet i would try to post them somewhere and we could play a game of "name that bar!" I was lucky enough last week to be on the beach every day .... and no.... not in a kagoule!

If you have them in "My Pictures" they are easy to put onto Facebook! You can control who you would allow to view them!

Cheers................... the other worry is when people are described as being a bad egg, I understand. But what is a lert?

Don I am glad you asked that:

LERT =

shorthand for 'see ya later'.
"I've gotta go - Lert!" - "Ok, then, see ya lert."

or

 A small furry woodland creature that senses are always very intensely attuned to its surroundings.

No need to thank me now!! LOL
