Some old haunts

While we were in Spain, we went for a drive up to Los Barrios to see the incinerator (honest!) then took the back road to Estacion de San Roque. The storks were in their nests as usual, perched atop the electricity pylons along the railway track and across the fields. The pylons are cunningly designed to encourage their nest building, so it's a common sight here.

We also went for a late afternoon stroll along the beach, where we took these pictures. I think I'll make this my 'seashells' year.

Happy New Year!!

OK, so it's the 13th January and nearer to Chinese New Year than our old one. But we did only get home last weekend and there's been no time to write up the blog, what with work, ironing and all those other things that didn't get done while we were away. Anyway, here's a couple of piccies from our New Year celebration. It was also a bit of a house warming, being held in our new flat in Spain. Mary, Tony, John, Jan, Kirsty, Kelly and Becky all helped us see in the New Year and, shortly after midnight, stepped out onto the balcony to watch the firework displays. Thankfully it didn't collapse under us all. Ellie took the first picture, so here's one of her. Don't you think the woman on the telly looks a wee bit jealous?
