Belly dancing with a bad back
Just so you understand..I'm not the belly dancer, I'm the one with the bad back. It happened yesterday, doing up the zip on my daughter's jacket, as I bent up I felt it go. I knew the sign as I've hurt my back on previous occasions. It was Saturday morning and we were just heading out to go to Estepona for the day as it was a gloriously hot and sunny day here.
I was determined that I would carry on through the pain. Before getting into the car I did a few bends and twists and eased myself in. This was going to hurt today! But I was determined to go out and have a nice day, which in fact we did. I was ok walking and sitting, but when it came to getting up off a chair and walking (read stagging) off I must have looked like I'd just had 10 pints of beer.
Got through the morning and afternoon but my real concern was the evening. I really wanted to be ok for the evening ahead. You see, we were supposed to be going out with a group of friends to a Moroccan restaurant in Sabinillas and there was to be a belly dancer there....so it wasn't to be missed really!
And I'm glad I did make it (I think the glasses of wine in the restauarant helped numb the pain). What a fantastic evening. This place was packed and the belly dancer was great. Then the Moroccan waitresses did some dancing too and the whole place was buzzing. We never even knew this restaurant was there but what a great place to go to and so reasonable. It was 19 Euros per head which includes an excellent buffet dinner (all you can eat) and a bottle of wine between three. If you're interested the restaurant is called "Restaurante Jasmine" and it's in Sabinillas.
Great place, great food and some great entertainment.
Next morning I awoke with a bit of a hangover and a very sore back!
