I think that to reactivate Nikongear meetups after the pandemic we need more structured well organized and more affordable get togethers.

I'd love to actually meet some of you in the future.

Ironically I have a family trip planned to Jerez in 2 weeks time - bad timing strikes again :(

I called it a day and let you with meditation time in red.

This works well on so many levels - were you feeling as peaceful as this suggests Frank?

Hi Colin, I'll be close to Jerez. We can easily arrange a coffee!

A couple of days of busy activity means I'm still sorting the images of the last two days of our meeting.

  "La Caleta"maybe one of the most famous beaches in Spain.

Note to myself: do not go to Spain. After the 2018 meetup I went to the hospital for many weeks, this time I came home sick too. Starting with a light fever on Tuesday, then a general sick feel Wednesday, then Boiling hot and freezing cold on Thursday and "man without bones" today. Better than last time. Good is something different

Sorry about that, Frank.  Have you (or your doctor) figured out the reason?  Hope you to get well soon!

This might be nature’s way of telling you to stay in Spain  ;D

I survived better than Frank F, but put on weight -- wonder why? Now rapidly shedding the 'Spanish bonus', though. Food for thought a single week could have such massive impact.

Tonight it is snowing again. Spanish weather is from another galaxy apparently.

2018 they ran all of my body and fluids through all machines they had. Their guess was: Some tropical disease transporter by biting or stinging insects. The symptoms were compatible with Dengue or Malaria but the could not find either and they searched for hundreds of different virusses, bacteria and parasites. After 8 Weeks it went away as it came. I lost 20 Kilos felt very old and would describe the experience as "near dead'. Especially when the pain escalated to a viable storm and even morphine did not help anymore it was interesting

construction sites everywhere seem to be a tad on the chaotic side of things. In Spain they are very decorative on top

I'm sorry to be reminded of that.  Again, hope you get well soon without any aftereffect.
