Some may remember the pic I posted two years ago of a wall full of chipmunks (in fact they are northafrican squirrels)......and they are still there. Cute as ever.

Look right.....

Look left......

Hmmmmmmmm- does she have stuff to eat???? FOOD?

I should check this out......

No??

Really not??

Pfffft- then I'll show you my hairy squirrel behind!!

Jo · 12-24-2008

An artist on the beach was making sand sculptures and working really hard.

Finally in town.

YUM- my fish!! It's called Fula and lives in the deepsea.
I had the strong feeling it was watching me while I was eating it.

After......

Flan!!

Jo · 12-24-2008

Started going back, was going to stop at the supermarket and also at the wall again.....I had taken some bread from the restaurant with me for the squirrels.

One of the aquaeducts that go through town and are there in case it rains to "guide" the water from the mountains to the ocean.

Jo · 12-24-2008

They had some lovely seafood on display at the supermarket.

I am sure the gull at the beach would have loved some of it- he looked very cold.

Back at the squirrel wall I didn't see the squirrels.....but someting moved quickly in one of the holes......so I went closer to take a look- and someone looked back at me.

Some last impressions from the way back- until next time!

Ditto - the pictures are amazing!

Hey everyone- thank you for the kind words!! And I hope every single one of you had a great X-mas too!!

Sorry for the lack of updates- yesterday was nice weather again, so again I stayed on the balcony with ocean view and just soaked in the sun.......and in the eve I went to the entertainment show in one of the hotels here (forgot the camera, dang it) and got a little bit carried away with the vodka tonics after...........so today saw me suffering and doing literally nothing, once again.

But more than another week to go, still- so there will be updates!!

You have a great eye for composition. Nice to see a doctor that uses the right side of her brain too!

Just a few of the many outstanding photos that help to make this such an informative and beautiful trip report!
