Roadworks in calle Alejandro Bueno
Roadworks going on at the moment in calle Alejandro Bueno at the junction (top) with calle Pintada near Plaza Cantarero.
Making do
Bar Cavana is taking advantage of the new pedestrianised area around Plaza Cavana, at least while the work in the square continues, by putting out a terrace right in front of the bar. Presumably just a temporary solution.
Plaza de la Ermita, February 23rd 2010
Nothing much happening in Plaza de la Ermita after the initial, late flurry of activity. It is all dug up, but no further progress since then. Presumably the company is working on several projects at the same time without sufficient labour to maintain activity on all sites at the same time.
Plaza de la Ermita, February 15th 2010
Work on Plaza de la Ermita has finally started and the whole square has now been dug up, including the old fountain, ready for the next stage of the project.
Biggest full moon ever?…
January 29th 2010 was not only a full moon, but apparently could be the biggest full moon of 2010. The January full moon is also called the ‘wolf moon’, a name derived from native American Indian tradition. Also, this full moon had a sidekick, the planet Mars.
Lovely day…
Sunday was a lovely day so I wasn’t too surprised to find people on the beach. A bit surprised that some were sunbathing. Stunned that some were swimming! You could tell it was a trifle on the cool side in the water by the occasional shriek.
