This wonderful place has a timeless quality. One day following the next, full of blue skies, the sound of the sea and a feeling that this summer will last forever.
Long walks by the water, both separately and together, a chance to catch up on books I have wanted to read, and the time to simply be with my two Lovers.
How perfect can life be?

My skin has had enough sun, too much really; it´s time to cover up. Bikini-clad, I wander into the bedroom, looking for my robe.
Michael is there, staring out to sea through the enormous picture window.
“It´s a stunning view, isn´t it?”
He turns. “It is, yes.”
He looks sad, upset. “Michael. Are you alright?”
He shrugs. “Just thinking.”
“Can I help? Is there something I can do?”
“No, I don´t think there is, Charlotte. It´s not your fault.”
My fault?
“Michael, have I done something to upset you?”
He shakes his head, looking down, not speaking. Not looking at me.
