‘I love everything!!'

 It is a day of streets and suburbs and blocks of flats on the edge of nowhere.  Let us go, first, to the Confiteria Praga.  





As a supermarket,  Confiteria Praga is a 4.3 sort of a place. It is a 7.30am to 2.30pm and 5.30-10.30pm sort of place, every day but Tuesdays.  On Tuesday it is closed.   Four weeks ago Sergio said ‘Neighborhood supermarket, fairly good prices, good deli, slightly limited product variety, but that's normal given the size of the supermarket. Overall, pretty good.’   Rey Lobo added ‘A supermarket in this Murcia neighborhood where you can find a wide selection of food and household products. Very clean and organized, it's perfect for making large or small purchases thanks to the variety of items.’



The top comments were Price, Butcher Shop, Embutido, Sunday and gender.  I can not find the references to gender.  I am confused.




Panaderia El Rojo 1939 has an interesting name.  https://www.panaderiaelrojo.com/  The website is fun. The place was established in 1939 and they are keen on artisans and traditions.   To translate a small section of it ‘At El Rojo Bakery, we've been baking with the same passion for good bread for over a century. Since 1939, we've maintained the flavor that has captivated generations, using original recipes passed down through generations. Every bite is a journey back in time, without losing sight of the freshness that today's palates demand.’






Maria tends to agree.  ‘Artisan bakery with a variety of high-quality breads, as well as different types of sweet and savory pastries. A perfect ten.  Ana agreed.  ‘I love everything!!  The artisanal bread is delicious... it's so hard to find good, traditional bread these days. The pastries are equally spectacular, and the service from the staff is a 10/10.’




We are going to walk alongside the Mu-33.  It is a bit dull but never mind, we can pop in to Viviendas Con Estilo - an estate agent.  

https://viviendasconestilo.com/  Juanma reckoned ‘I sold my house with them. From the beginning of the sale to the signing at the notary's office, the service was unbeatable. A quick sale, exceptional service.’



We will end at the Polideportivo la Albecarca.  It gets 4 reviews and 3 stars.



Moises felt ‘Currently, the facilities are somewhat neglected, especially the locker room area, which has to be used by more than 20 or 30 teams every weekend.’



Murxiano opined ‘This sports center isn't bad; it has a pavilion, tennis courts, and a soccer field with stands. The only thing that isn't very good is the playing field; the grass is in very poor condition.’



So it ends.

  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...

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...

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...
