Underneath the Palms.   Mainly me and the fountain.

One of the excellent staff.   Molly Wood and her rather strange microphone placement.

Just like the view.   And darker

Mainly doing nothing

View from the top end of the pool.   Post breakfast hotel view.

Just felt like it.   Another round the pool photo.
IMG_6096   IMG_6099
And it’s very clean too.   Can’t get this in my local Asda, which used to be a Carrefour.

 

And even slowing down at that

After yesterday’s rain

 

IMG_6048   IMG_6049
If you look closely you can see I’m on the Wifi, Tweetdeck to the rear. From last night.   Also from last night, just past sunset.
IMG_6057   IMG_6060
The pool at night.   Sun up.
IMG_6063   IMG_6067
Yet another Palm tree.   Castle Bellver, on the way to getting the papers.
IMG_6069   IMG_6075
Local play ground, yes really.   Lucky, he’d have your arm off.
IMG_6076   IMG_6078
Bus stop.   Roadside flowers.
IMG_6081   IMG_6082
The cooking bit.   Another cooking bit.
IMG_6086    
The emergency Margo pool insertion device.    

 

Today I cooked

Used P20

 

IMG_6027   IMG_6026
Loving the pre dawn.   But the clouds look a touch angry.
IMG_6030   IMG_6032
And how right I was going to be.   Breakfast by the pool.
IMG_6033   IMG_6036
Rare picture of a person.   The hills behind the airport.
IMG_6037   IMG_6038
That orange Palm tree again   Another tree
IMG_6039   IMG_6043
Balcony, post rain.   Knees.
IMG_6041   IMG_6045
All gone rather grey.   Another cloud burst.
IMG_6046    
Rather too wet to be at my usual table.    

 

Should have used WD40

Rain in the morning

 

IMG_5998   IMG_6001
Early morning deliveries.   Early morning command central.
IMG_6003   IMG_6006
Pre sun up angry clouds.   Sun up over the crane.
IMG_6008   IMG_6009
Quality of light.   A touch on orange on the Palm tree.
IMG_6011   IMG_6013
Toast, cereal and rain outside.   Cloud bursting #01.
IMG_6014   IMG_6016
Cloud bursting #02.   It is a port after all. Rain stopped.
IMG_6017   IMG_6018
Local paper shop   The main drag
IMG_6019   IMG_6021
And back again   Sun out
IMG_6022   IMG_6023
Feet out   Saving the suns’ good rays

 

A slight tan in the afternoon
