Hope out of the gully

Image
As always, it is much too dry. Maybe they would not call our place "Costa del Sol" otherwise. But we have been blessed with a few drops in May and, above all, June. Plants are awakening to new life at the most amazing places. Happy solstice, BTW!  Hope out of the gully in Torremolinos  (Andalusia, Spain)

Iznájar, I still love you!

My friends and regular readers know how much I love the place. Located on the edge of the province of Málaga, but in the province of Córdoba, the town of Iznájar and surroundings have magnificent views to offer.  This year, however, it is a bit depressing to see the reservoir at 16 percent of its capacity. Maybe it is time for those who govern us to start thinking about how to manage water better.

Moss and leaves in Fuengirola River

We were looking for some nature and found it where we thought, disappointed, that the hike was over and had not much to offer. We were able to cross Fuengirola River (also called Gomenaro River) because it had little water. Then the adventure began, with the diseminado Chaparral.

Harmony at my doorstep

Image
The day I can walk anywhere from home without fear of finding nothing but concrete, that day I will be free. The day I can hear birds again instead of building cranes and trucks. The day I breathe sea salt again instead of dust. No, I am not talking about vacations, but about some harmony at my doorstep. Torremolinos (Andalusia, Spain), calle Pan Triste
