So this was the last week of his residence in our home. He will come back for visits from time to time, but his home will now be in Barcelona. I am a bit sad to see him leave:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_4.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1227\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_5<\/strong><br \/>\nWe have bought a small backyard pool for Mochi now that he has come to like the water:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_5.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1222\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_6<\/strong><br \/>\nStaying with the canine theme, one of the pleasures of having a beer at the beach bar 100 Montaditos is to watch the dogs and people walking by:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_6.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1226\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_7<\/strong><br \/>\nAnother early morning beach scene with nice sky:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_7.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1228\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_8<\/strong><br \/>\nA nice chance encounter. While buying something in the centre on my way home from work, I ran into my colleague Inge and her little dog:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_8.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1233\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_9<\/strong><br \/>\nOn Friday, Eri and I drove to Hostal Maruja, her first visit there. Because we went early (in Spain, the peak hour for lunch is around 2:30 p.m., we went at 1:30), we got one of the best tables, as close to the water as possible. Eri enjoyed the scene very much:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_9.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1234\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_10<\/strong><br \/>\nShe also enjoyed the food very much, here fried anchovies:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_10.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1237\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_11<\/strong><br \/>\nEri is often on the phone, not because she is surfing but with an ailing mother in Greece and her children living in the UK, she is often called about some family matter:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_11.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1240\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_12<\/strong><br \/>\nPosing outside Hostal Maruja:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_12.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1241\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_13<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_13.jpg\" alt=\"DSF1242\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_14<\/strong><br \/>\nBack to cycling.

The place is a couple km from my house, and I always take the bicycle to go there, as parking is horrendously difficult to find on a nice day. This also allows me to stop and take pictures whenever I want. The beach was quite busy:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_16.jpg\" alt=\"1050012\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_17<\/strong><br \/>\nBeing somewhat afraid of heights, this is an activity I have never tried and never will:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_17.jpg\" alt=\"1050011\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_18<\/strong><br \/>\nSome beach volley action:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_18.jpg\" alt=\"1050008\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_19<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_19.jpg\" alt=\"1050014\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>29_20<\/strong><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2025\/29_20.jpg\" alt=\"1050016\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A quiet week, photographically speaking.
