Recharging Our Souls

Blanes

My summer vacation has come to an end. After a wonderful five-day stay in Blanes, we're back home. Those few days were the epitome of summer for me – relaxing with my family and creating lasting memories. Though brief, the time we spent together was incredibly fulfilling.

We chose Blanes as our summer vacation destination this year due to budget constraints. With peak travel season in Europe, international trips were beyond our reach. Blanes, a modern and vibrant town on the Costa Brava, proved to be an excellent alternative. Just an hour and fifteen-minute train ride from the city centre, it offers stunning beaches and coves. The town's designation as a Family Tourism Destination further solidified our choice, as it provides a wide range of family-friendly activities and services.

One of the main attractions in the town is the Marimurtra Botanical Garden, with more than 3,000 species of plants from 5 different continents. Below you'll find some photos of views and flowers inside the garden.

These past five days in Blanes have been truly memorable, filled with quality time with the loves of my life. Keiron delighted us with his enthusiasm for swimming, taking his first steps in the pool. Kayla amazed us all with her graceful underwater movements, making me wish I could swim as effortlessly as she does. And Cari, my constant companion, continues to be my rock, supporting me through thick and thin. While our vacation may have ended, the most precious gift is the renewed strength of our family bond.

"Vuelvo al trabajo el Lunes", "On Monday, I return to the daily grind." The stresses of work and financial worries will undoubtedly resurface. But these short breaks are essential for rejuvenation. My batteries are now fully charged, and I'm ready to face whatever challenges and trials that may come my way. I'm grateful for this wonderful experience and eager to embrace the future.
