A perfect day again.
Jane is off today. She's going to have her hair cut.
I do the blog and wait for her to return, then we go to walk Rosie and Domingo.
The donkeys are looking well and we give them an hour to eat some fresh green grasses.
I like Jane's hair, she decides she needs to show off the new style and her tan, so we go for a walk.
We call into Café Bar Guayácan where we chat with Yolanda.
We're getting a disc for our car that means when Jane uses the 'peage' (toll roads) she drives through a special gate and doesn't have to pay cash. Money is deducted directly from our bank account. It works out cheaper too as you pay the low off season tariff all year. Alejandro from our local Unicaja bank is helping us sort it out. He's always helpful.
We walked to the Restaurante Kábilas to sit in the sun on their terrace. A lovely spot. We saw our neighbour Cristóbal. He's working in the school, putting in a sand pit and some of those special soft rubbery floor tiles for kids play areas. As we were chatting a Booted eagle flew at head height across the ridge just behind us.
We walked down to Bar Andrés Sánchez, we sat outside in the sun. What a great day.
Later we cooked a Spaghetti Bolognese.
I watched the Chelsea v Liverpool game. A great match 3-2 to Chelsea after extra time.
