Calle Carabeo update, May 24th

As I walked out…
Things are still moving along (apart from the traffic, of course) on calle Carabeo, and a little more quietly. Although they did seem to be on a tea break when I passed by.
Calle Carabeo and Chocolat…
Work has indeed started on phase two of the calle Carabeo improvement scheme and is scheduled to last until the summer, provided all goes to plan! But when does it ever? The stretch currently being renovated begins by the alley leading to the Los Huertos car park (that’s the place where the market is not going to be) and covers …
