A memorable weekend...
We heard the noises as soon as we got up. A big group,
chatting and just enjoying being together. Kids playing, parents talking, dogs running around. We had
to find out more. What a delightful choice! For the next 3 days- a long weekend- we shared our
adventure with 7 Spanish families who got together via ACPasion. Absolutely loved
their company, their laughs, the paella "competition", the very long
table with so much yummy food, their generosity, their openness , the very cold
night at the markets, the furious bike ride, the gym in the morning, the uphill
walk to the church. Not enough time to
get to know each one of them and their stories. Just a glimpse, sufficient to
want more . They fed our bodies and lift our spirits. They reminded us of another
time, when we holidayed with our kids. It was great to be part of a
"family" again. They asked " do you open up to different people
when you know you will lose them straight away?" The answer: absolutely!
We value these moments so much. They are precious to us. We grab them with gusto.
We are getting better at the "after they leave" (not really!!) It is not
easy but it is totally worthy.. Perhaps we can get lucky again and meet them
another time, another place?
