Notice the two cyclists on the left. Needless to say, this a very pleasant part of the route, since all the serious climbing is finished at this point:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_4.jpg\" alt=\"_1000107\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_5<\/strong><br \/>\nOne afternoon on my way home, I stopped at the Alcampo supermarket to buy the basics (we were low on beer). Looking up onto the hill above the shopping centre, I noted that someone, I am not sure how, had put up a rather large sign protesting the budget cuts. For scale, one can see the tracks of our local light rail at the bottom of the picture:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_5.jpg\" alt=\"_1000109\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_6<\/strong><br \/>\nNear my home, the police have recently started enforcing parking regulation, much to the surprise of the locals. When your car has been towed, the police let you know using a little sticker on the sidewalk:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_6.jpg\" alt=\"_1000112\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_7<\/strong><br \/>\nAnother cycling picture, a giant Bart near the El Campello harbour:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_7.jpg\" alt=\"_1000115\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_8<\/strong><br \/>\nOn Thursday at the office. As if to prepare me for San Francisco, the fog and mist rolled in from the sea, obscuring the usual view of city:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_8.jpg\" alt=\"_1000120\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_9<\/strong><br \/>\nFriday afternoon cycling. A goat herder in El Campello, just a couple km from the beach:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_9.jpg\" alt=\"_1000128\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_10<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the goats is more interested in the leaves than in the rather dry grass:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_10.jpg\" alt=\"_1000122\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And then three pictures from Saturday morning&#8217;s dog walk, just before I took our dog and cat to their 5-star hotel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>34_11<\/strong><br \/>\nMy dog greets the neighbour&#8217;s dog:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_11.jpg\" alt=\"IGP5484\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_12<\/strong><br \/>\nOutside our bakery there is a bicycle parking rack, which is also handy for &#8220;parking&#8221; your dog while you go inside to buy bread:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_12.jpg\" alt=\"IGP5489\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_13<\/strong><br \/>\nA strange growth in a planter outside the bakery:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"uploads\/2012\/34_13.jpg\" alt=\"IGP5491\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>34_14<\/strong><br \/>\nFinally, late Saturday morning, we took Cheeta to her hotel.
