Back to work


Well maybe not, after the hectic and non stop Easter week celebrations, we needed a little time to relax.


We walked to the beach and Lidl (always a favourite walk) There were a lot of sizable lizards in view on the paths and even on the boardwalk by the main beach.


Isn't he lovely?


There is a  collection of little fishing shacks near the last beach before we head back to the road.


these ropes are used on the floating viveros to farm mussels.....the mussels grow on them.


Anti-nuclear rigout........

Previously we had also walked to Limens beach a different route and came across a little church and well kept graveyard we had never seen before.


There was a curious and elaborate spring/well in the grounds.


As we dropped down into the familiar small town and lovely beach at Limens there were splashes of vivid colour along the path. Like the lizards it appeared that the local flora is having a spring explosion.........


A small boat at anchor in a perfect little cove. Viveros in the distance.


Clematis, Cactus succulents and other flowers we are not sure of but they are pretty!



Along with the wildflowers we are also enjoying a bit of a bonanza for fruit and veg, Spanish strawberries are in season and are as big as a small fist and utterly delicious, They are also less than 2 euros a kilo so Lynne is even putting them in her Gin! I think she got the idea from Toby on the Archers......

It is getting increasingly difficult to persuade Lynne to leave, however as Alex is only due out in another month in order to come sailing with us, there is no rush. I am beginning to get very attached to the beautiful Rias myself with crystal clear water and sunshine, if only the water was not so cold it would be perfect!


I did actually do some work, rebuilt the pump I had replaced, built a wee shelf for the MOBI man overboard fobs, fitted the deck plate for the Walker log. basically pottered about, its lovely!
