Hello lovely peeps,
I forgot to photograph a postcard and as I can't photograph them at night under the lamp (too much glare), I am showing a card that I have sent rather than received, as it was already on my computer:
It's a fun map of my region Andalucia. If you look closely, you'll be able to distinguish 8 provinces: Huelva, Sevilla, Cádiz, Málaga, Córdoba, Jaen, Granada, Almería.
Google writes: Andalusia is a large autonomous region of hills, rivers and farmland bordering Spain’s southern coast. It was under Moorish rule from the 8th-15th centuries, a legacy that shows in its architecture, including such landmarks as the Alcázar castle in Seville, the capital city, as well as Córdoba’s Mezquita Mosque-Cathedral and Granada’s Alhambra palace. ― Google Capital: Seville Area: 87,597 km² .
I live in the Granada province which is a large stretched out province. I live under the feet of the flamenco dancer on the map, near the border with Almería. Granada is known (apart from the Alhambra) for its Sierra Nevada mountains and ski resort. The southern most ski pistes in Europe.
My week has been pretty uneventful. I have started my usual activities again, like Pilates twice a week and Gym, also twice a week. I've also had a haircut:
We've also started Intercambio (Spanish/English conversation group) again. But for one reason or another (there is some flu etc going round) only Jayne and I turned u. So I suggested to Jayne we go out for a drink:
Jayne had to drive so she had a non-alcoholic beer and I had my white wine. Of course we got a free 'tapa', a little snack, with our drink:
It was a slice of bread with a few slices of cured ham and some olives. It was really nice ham.
As today is the T-Party, hosted by Elizabeth and Bluebeard, this glass of wine can be my 'ticket' to the party.
That is all from me today. Short and sweet as they say.
Happy T-Day all,
çLisca
