Manolo on the Road
Manolo says, as the many internet friends of the Manolo may have noticed, little has been posted this week here at the Manolo’s humble shoe blog. This it is because the Manolo has been most busy this week.
Sadly, he is about to become much busier, as the Manolo will this day make his annual trip to Malibu, where for the next few months he will be firmly lodged in his summer residence along the coast.
This time, it is for the Manolo one of the most delightful seasons of the year, when the Manolo can put behind him the demanding schedule of the flanneur and become the simple beachcomber.
However, you are not to worry, as the Manolo will, by the first part of the next week, be back in this space, sharing with his many internet friends his meagre japes and his love for the shoes of super fantasticness.

Ohhh, take me with you! I would love walk the beach with you in all your witty superfantasticness! Of course it is the one place I generally go without shoes….
Have a super relaxing time!

Manolo the Beachcomber
A fond Bon Voyage to our dear friend the Manolo, who is off to Hawaii for a bit. Shoelover hopes that this isn’t the sort of beachcomber Manolo had in mind. xoxo Shoelover

We here in Hawai’i would be overjoyed to have the Manolo come to visit. But the Malibu, it is in California, where they have better bookstores and kosher delis but less fresh poke and ‘ukulele music. Enjoy your trip, Manolo.

You obviously don’t know Hawaii as well as I do. Because if you did you would know that Malibu, Hawaii is about 10 miles east of New York City, Hawaii and 20 miles north of Paris, Hawaii.

Winter in New York, summer in Malibu. I could scream with jealousy.

Ah, I lived in The ‘Bu in the 1980s. The weather was always perfect, and the sprout samwiches you could get at the sandwich place in Malibu Center were always delicious. Sigh.
