Afterwards, I asked them to indulge me for a few minutes while I took a couple of infrared pictures of Urbanova beach:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_2.jpg\" alt=\"L1012173\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_3<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_3.jpg\" alt=\"L1012176\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_4<\/strong><br \/>\nTuesday morning, I was again at my physio&#8217;s office, and explored the plants in my treatment room and the neighbouring one:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_4.jpg\" alt=\"R001235\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_5<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_5.jpg\" alt=\"R001234\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_6<\/strong><br \/>\nOn Thursday, we went out for lunch again. In April, we will get a new colleague on my team, Chris, a Seconded National Expert from the UK Intellectual Property Office. This week, he was in Alicante to look for an apartment, and so we took the opportunity to meet up with him in the pleasant surroundings of a tapas restaurant downtown. Here is Francisco, our tapas expert, studying the menu:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_6.jpg\" alt=\"L1012189\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_7<\/strong><br \/>\nChris, getting his introduction to lunch, Spanish style:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_7.jpg\" alt=\"L1012190\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_8<\/strong><br \/>\nCarolina, picking at the food. The way a typical Spanish lunch functions is that plates of food are put on the table to share, and everyone just takes what they want:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_8.jpg\" alt=\"L1012185\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_9<\/strong><br \/>\nOn Friday evening, we visited our Argentine\/Catalan friends Eliott and Axunta. Their little dog has a rash on her legs, so she has to wear the lamp shade to keep her from licking it:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_9.jpg\" alt=\"R001238\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_10<\/strong><br \/>\nSaturday morning, while walking Cheeta, I went back to exploring the trees in the park with my Leica:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_10.jpg\" alt=\"L1012191\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_11<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_11.jpg\" alt=\"L1012192\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_12<\/strong><br \/>\nLater on Saturday, I went for my usual bike ride in the mountains. I have passed this ruin of a chapel many times and have often thought of photographing it, but somehow never got around to it. This time, however, nature called quite persistently, so I answered the call and took the picture:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2015\/12_12.jpg\" alt=\"_1020148\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>12_13<\/strong><br \/>\nJust 10 km further, on the outskirts of Jijona, the weather started looking decidedly iffy.
