The beach In the summer I usually go to the beach. I like swimming but I don´t like to much be under the sun, so I go early in the morning, more or less at 10:30, and I leave around 12:00. I live near the coast, and the closest beach is ten minutes by car. When I get to the beach I put the sun umbrella and the towel, and apply myself sunscreen. There is a watch beach service, and it warn us if the sea is not able for swimming with a flags color code. When the flag is green the sea is calm. When it is yellow we have to be careful and when it's red the swim is banned. This summer the weather is been good, and most of the days the flag has been green, so I could swim a lot. When I go back home from the beach, I enjoy having a beer sitting in the porch.

The barbecue This weekend we had a barbecue at home. We invited to some old friends. We know them since we studied the career (more or less twenty five years). We were six couples plus childrens (four boys and three girls), total nineteen. The weather was warm, but near the barbecue it looked scorching. We cooked differents types of sausages, burgers and bacon. For drink we had beer, wine and non alcoholic beverage, all of them cold, very cold, When we finished to eat, we had cafe and some combined drinking. We spoke, played soccer, basketball and ping pong. Finally, at nine pm, the barbecue finished. It was a very nice day, because of we met again since the last years. We hope to repeat it again the next year.

The Patron Saint (Corrections will be welcome). Today the weather in the morning has been mild but drizzling. It is a special day because it is a holiday in my village, we celebrate the patron saint. Those present at the party were invited to have a lunch in the street, the menu were stew of potato with tuna... the name of the dish in Spanish is "marmitaco"...delicious. At the night, there is going to be a musical concert. We can drink and eat in some of the bars installed in the place, of course with moderation.
