\nSunday night, Lars and I drove to El Campello to reward ourselves for all our cycling with dinner at La Petite Alsace, a restaurant run by a couple from Alsace where you can get real choucroute etc. Before that, we went for a walk in the El Campello harbour:

\nThe coast of El Campello, as seen from the harbour:

\nMonday was the last day of Lars’s visit, and of course no visit is complete without a pizza making session. So when I came home from work Monday evening, this was the sight that greeted me in the kitchen:
\n![\"L1010295\"](\"uploads\/2014\/3_4.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nThe chef at work:
\n![\"L1010305\"](\"uploads\/2014\/3_5.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nOne of the toppings–roasted tofu:

<\/p>\n
\nWhile Lars was working, he had a very interested spectator:
\n![\"L1010312\"](\"uploads\/2014\/3_7.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nThe finished product:

\nSunrise over our subdivision:

\nThe Mediterranean as seen from our office:

<\/p>\n
\nRain clouds over the A7 motorway:
\n![\"_1010538\"](\"uploads\/2014\/3_11.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nSame clouds, looking towards my mountain haunts of Aig\u00c3\u00bces and Busot:

<\/p>\n
\nLars’s pizza production Monday night was generous, so when my wife and daughter came home on Wednesday, we had dinner. And since Lars had bought vegan cheese, Monica could enjoy to her heart’s content:

<\/p>\n
\nWe have a major construction project going on, adding a new wing to the building so that all employees, today split between two buildings, can be housed together. There will also be an auditorium and other nice things:
\n![\"L1010325\"](\"uploads\/2014\/3_14.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nThis looks like the entrance to the future underground car park:

\nTwo workers in a sea of scaffolding:

\nFriday afternoon, one of our administrative assistants had to bring her daughters to the office for a couple of hours:

\nFriday night. I have made a stir-fry of chicken, various veggies and udon noodles, and Cheeta gets training in eating with chopsticks:

\nOn Saturday morning I went to the Mercado Central to buy lamb and fish. On the square behind the market I photographed the newly installed memorial to the more than 300 people who were killed here in 1938 during an attack by the Italian air force, similar to what happened in Guernica except that Alicante had no Picasso to paint the atrocity:
\n![\"L1010352\"](\"uploads\/2014\/3_20.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\nI enjoy going to the market partly because the meat, fish and produce are good and inexpensive, and partly because it provides me with photo opportunities every time I go:
