Walks with Sonia

I have a friend in Spain who I met the first year we vacationed in Zahara de los Atunes. I looked forward this year to returning and walking on the beach with her to catch up. There are few people you meet at a certain point in your life who you truly feel connected to – as if they were always there just waiting for you to arrive.

We took the ferry to Tangiers together for a day – but that’s another story – we walked on the beach together and bared our souls.

The thing about friendship that is so allusive is you meet a lot of people in your life you like, some you like a lot, and yet it’s rare to meet someone who you feel is an old friend from the first day you meet her.

    the expression in your eyes, both of you = priceless.

    Mudd – what you might not be able to see from this photo is that I bought this fan in Croatia, in Split, four years ago, and it’s funnier now because it looks so Spanish but says CROATIA across it. Ha.

    Though I had clicked on the photo to see it enlarged, I was so focused on both your beautiful faces that I hadn’t noticed the HUGE letters forming the word CROATIA. Now that you mentioned it, I had to take another look and BAM, there it was…CROATIA. Too funny.
