Focussing on the essentials in Pampaneira
We overworked people who live in the turbulent world of the coast, finally gave ourselves a weekend to look, smell, walk and read. Ferruginous water. Chestnut trees, mulberry trees, ferns. We hadn't been to the village of Pampaneira (population about 350, in the Alpujarra region of Granada, Spain) for years, since my mother bought me a beautiful red poncho there. People used to come by car or bus, buy a poncho or a rug, drink a beer, and leave. ;-)
I wish I could have stayed there, at least until the end of the summer, or maybe forever. We met a dog that could have been the brother of our late Nicki, same color, same coat, same eyes. But the dog was free and happy and we knew that he had an owner. For him the best constellation ever.
Enjoy some views of the picturesque Pampaneira, by day and by night. (I will post more pictures of this wonderful place in the coming weeks).
What great photos of such a beautiful place!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Matt! Yes, it is a great place. Of course, it would be hard to live there permanently, especially in the winter, but I always love being there.
