A warning to watchmen

 Following yesterday’s mournful procession we seem to have come to a dead end - Google Plonk for you.  We start in 2008 and then jump to 2022, back a bit and forward - such is streetview.



The Port of Alicante has a point on the map for it to be reviewed - but this seems linked to no organisation.  Six hours ago Amnie Max declared it was a ‘Very good place.’   year ago Sarah was one of the more wordy with ‘Beautiful harbor with lots of boats, of all types, sailboats, large and small boats. It's nice to walk there when the weather is nice. There is also the casino right next door, as well as restaurants.’



We will pass Mosca Martimo - a trucking company.  It is open weekdays 8 till 8. A month ago Rafa reckoned ‘A great transport company. We've shipped several containers to the Canary Islands, and they've helped us a lot with the entire process. A 10 for them. We'll continue to work together for many years to come.’



We are over the river and arrive at the San Gabriel station. It gets the usual municipal transportation 3.9.  The most recommended review is from Andres.  It starts in a standard way….Excellent beach… then takes an unusual turn.  ‘The LORD CHRIST JESUS is coming soon please get ready as soon as you can. read Ezequiel 33:6’


As a service I went to the King James’ Bible - which, while not the most accurate translation, is the most decent and Anglican one and it says ‘But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand’



I will let you interpret the motives behind this message and its location in the Googlesphere.



Sergio is more exact and three stary ‘Station/halt that serves the San Gabriel neighborhood, Alicante. In general it has few services, the main one being the commuter line C1 Murcia-Alicante and some medium distance services. Mainly it is a station where the reversal is made to reach Alicante Terminus and where the freight trains that go to the port pass.



With that, we end.

Much a do about something

  In North Lincolnshire there is an OS square which is all but empty,  In a single corner stretches a few metres of power cables to spoil the virgin whiteness.  Today’s walk is not so blessed with flat calm.  We will see trees.  We will see ups.  Views are compulsory.  Houses aren’t.  Let's talk about Asturias in the years from 718 to 757. In 711 the full force of the Islamic tide swept from North Africa into Visigothic Spain. At the Battle of Guadalete King Roderic and much of the nobility were killed and the Iberian Peninsula collapsed before the all conquering crescent.  The thing is, Asturias is a long way from the main body of Spain. It is a bit wet and more to the point lacking the plunder which was the way of paying the Army of the Conquest.  The Caliphate’s hold on Asturias was tenuous to say the least.  Enter  Pelagius. Pelagius has many myths swirling around him and a very butch Victorian statue in Gijon.  Accord...

In which a Roman Bridge and a Funeral Parlour are reviewed.

  We are rising again. We are rising 20 of your earth metres today. We will be 818m above the level sea. We are about at the highest point in the Cheviot Hills. We cross the Rio Porma and into Villarente and Puente Villarente. Both these twin settlements, lurking along the roadside, have generally grown in size since 2000.   https://www.turismocastillayleon.com/en/art-culture-heritage/great-routes/way-saint-james/puente-villarente First we must cross the Roman Bridge. Coyotuco is back with a five star review: A beautiful BRIDGE with a lot of history but it is not PEDESTRIAN. For pedestrians they have made a PEDESTRIAN WALKWAY right next to it. We are passing by the Artesanias Luyma so let us gaze at their ceramic goodness. Let us wonder  https://www.artesaniasluyma.com/categorias/pereruela/ While we are here and we are passing the Tanatorio Camino de Santiago let us visit this 39 reviewed funeral home. It gets an average of 4.9 stars.  https://www.antamontalvo.es/esq...

Mini Pieces of Supposed tuna

  Pina de Ebro has something for everyone who enjoys the architecture of Spanish pueblos.  It has the tiny lanes, on which houses have been rebuilt for generations without a care for the needs of the modern motorist.  We have the pathways which have been tiled over but once were dirt tracks.  We have the modern suburban developments of low rise houses and 80s hopefully aspiring shacks.  First all, however, we have a park. One thing we noticed, especially with a small boy in tow, was the number of parks with interesting play equipment.  This is because, in Spain, people seem to like children.  This does make them a semi-public property and people feel free to indulge them with sweetmeats and pass comments. ‘I think sucking thumbs makes children look ugly’ said one elderly woman.’ My Spanish for ‘well desiccated prune face, no one asked you’ deserted me.  The play equipment is in the Plaza Pilarin Artigas.  Honestly I’ve looked and was giving u...
