Al Kasar has been blessed with a new addition of Olive trees. They were being positioned around the huge reflection pond this afternoon. Placed on the corners and  in between for a total of what looks like 20 potted Olive trees. This should add another feature for night pictures taken around the inside of Al Kasar. Tonight the Clover is having a party and the addition of this mini grove of trees will give us a great backdrop. Great move Polaris World.

Polaris Telecom have some new service offers for the summer of 2010. With faster speeds available and lower rates a lot of owners and guests might find themselves wanting to get the all important life line installed in their apartments. Internet is something that most people expect when they come away on holiday and of course it is available on the public computers in the supermarket area, although no WIFI area is up and working yet on the resort.

Polaris now have several options for internet in your apartments starting at the basic monthly service of 15 Euros which includes a year contract with a 1MB connection speed, perfectly adequate to check e mails, play on facebook and chat using Skype. If you prefer not to have a contract you can now connect your apartment to the internet as and when you need it for only 32 Euros 3MB unlimited a month on the pay as you go program.

It is good to see this development from Polaris Telecom, I think with this offer we may see a few frustrating dongles floating in the pools. Be aware of anyone offering a one time connection fee and free internet, such a service legally, does not exist in Murcia.

So, the Spanish have a tradition of running the bulls through town and everyone can play tag with them on the way to the Bull fighting arena, ok. Sounds like a great adrenaline rush. But some times it can go sideways on you. Then I guess thats when you stop doing this practice and become a spectator.

If you are lucky enough to be in Spain this Sunday you can be sure of a good night of football excitement and entertainment. In the Murcia region the cities and small towns are using the municipal areas, erecting large screens and showing the World Cup finals for all to see and enjoy. The atmosphere is sure to be great at any one of the events.

This Sunday is bound to be a busy night in the Clover as Spain gears up to bring home the cup, so grab your Spanish flag and support the team and the country we have all grown to love.

A little word of warning, come early Wednesday night was packed and Sunday is sure to beat that crowd.

Today we see the hottest day of the year here at Condado De Alhama, temperatures soar to 42 Degrees after a couple of cool days. In Murcia a heat advisory is put into place at 38 Degrees.

The government asks that with such high temperatures the public is to take particular care of children and pensioners who are more likely to suffer from heatstroke. The intake of plenty of water is recommended, as is a reduction in physical activity and the wearing of light-coloured clothing.

So, take it easy, no problem…drink at least a 8oz of room temperature water every hour. Stay out of the direct sun, lower all the window shutters to keep it cool inside the house and eat small easy to digest meals, preferably fresh fruits and vegetables.

A common summer meal in this part of Spain is Gazpacho, very good for helping your body cope in the heat. You can pick it up at the Polaris World supermarket or any supermarket in the area. Gazpacho is similar to V8, serve chilled as a nutritious drink or add raw vegetables, peppers, celery, onions and a little cubed duck for a delicious easy to digest summer meal. Add vodka to it at night to make a healthy happy drink, bound to put a smile on your face.

If you don’t have enough sun in your life to stay out of it or cover up, enjoy one of the many swimming pools on the resort that remain very cool all year long.
