Yep, another one

With added cables and masts this time. A very lazy shot as we sat on the terrace with a sundowner -- I was so exhausted I could barely be bothered to rise from my chair. There are better vantage points.

A long day's driving -- we arrived at Casa Lola at five to be greeted like old friends by Gracia and Juan. We quickly unloaded the car and shut poor Mystère in the bedroom with some food and water (he'd refused to eat or drink all day, so he was definitely in need of water if nothing else). Then we drove down to Mercadona and did a big shop of basics plus stuff to graze on this evening. After G&T or Martini and lemon, with pan con tomate, jamón, and prawns according to taste, we stirred ourselves to unpack while updating the new shopping list with stuff we'd forgotten to buy or bring -- also the cupboards turned out to be disappointingly empty of basics like bin bags, washing up sponges, and detergent. Still, we have eaten well enough, especially as we stopped at Daniel's to buy a large tub of his excellent ice cream. And I also bought Mystère some fresh salmon and poached it -- he has deigned to eat a very small amount. It is good being able to slot right back in again, knowing where everything is. 

It'll be an early night for everyone ... Mystère is already asleep.
