The railings on the Balcón de Europa have been given a lick of paint for the summer visitors – everything is done for the visitors, rarely for the residents – as have many of the road crossings.
The shiny new stainless steel railings on Torrecilla beach look very good, but they don’t half get hot!
Things are back to normal after the annual two or three day crackdown on street and beach vendors.
And it would seem that in this building they are sitting on the fence and need to make up their minds as to whom they are supporting.
Absolute scorcher today, no wind at all, and there were a number of very red bodies, and domes, on the beaches today. Definitely a day for the old sun cream but many seemed not to have bothered. One or two looked so red it must have been starting to hurt already.
