view out of our window

I don't think I have blogged about the view out our hotel room window. We are on the tenth floor, though we are suppose to be on the 12-16, they were full so we are here. It is a nice room so we do not mind (I'm thinking I would stay at a motel 6 as long as I got to come and be here.) OUr windo faces the coast of the mederteranian Sea. It is beautiful. There are beaches all along the coast. Just to the north is the Hasidic beach. It has walls around it so they can have separation from the world around them. The men and women swim on alternating days. The boys must swim with the men and girls with the women. On their way to the beach they must get really really hot as they are covered from head to toe to hand. Beside that and closer to us is a public beach, for the hotel. They have a surf school down there so you can usually see people learning to surf. It is a lot of fun to watch. I know Jonny would just have a blast surfing and probably be really good at it quickly. Today it is a little hazy but some days are very clear. The water is a beautiful blue green and goes on beyond the horizon. The Sunsets are very pretty over the water adn can be seen from our window/balcony. When you go out on the balcony and look down you can see the hotel pool. It is usually full of people from as early as 6:30 am it has a hand full of swimmers swimming in the lanes (exercise). They also have a nice big pool for the children. At night they light it with blue lights, though it is closed it is beautiful from the balcony.
Right now I can see a couple of sail bots and a couple of kayaks out on the sea and lots of swimmers and the surf students up closer to the shoreline. The water is really very warm.
