'Crashed out drunk' view of the table. 
The Amstel was still only €2 a pint, so I had a couple.......
Cleo was on Vodka and Orange.

Reached the 'old town' and proceeded to our favourite cocktail bar - Nova.
I was so happy to see that the 'Singapore Sling' had appeared on their menu.
They still had the offer of two cocktails for €12, as long as they were the same, so we took full advantage.

Cleo loved the ceramic beakers and asked, Alex [the owner], if we could buy them.
He said 'NO', they only had a few of them, so they were very special.

Cleo had decided to drop out of drinking cocktails - but - I was thirsty for more.
So I drank this round of two cocktails.

Round 4 [yes, round 4!]
The poor waitress didn't know what to think.
My friend, Alex said, it's OK. Saying I could handle it.
Cleo looked to the heavens as I made my last order of two more cocktails...............

A view across Mal Pas Beach with Poniente Beach in the background.
Taken on the 5th October..........I still see that troublesome hair is still there, I have cleaned the lens now, so hopefully that should sort out that little annoyance.

Cleo and I popped out to the indoor market to get some more Euro's

We popped into the 'Flash' hotel - it was happy hour after all. 
I made a slight, clerical error, or was it?
I asked for two pints and received four! Whoops!
Worked out at €1.40 a pint.

Cleo wasn't that impressed when I had finished my first pint of Amstel and came back with another four!

So she decided to get her own 'happy hour' drinks.
And we listen a couple of live acts on the stage, some really great talent.
Cleo makes room for her Vodka & Oranges.

Sadly, Cleo has come down with cold, which has also given her 'tummy' issues.
This has obviously brought a bit of a downer on the holiday.
But we shall make the best of it.
