Market, Pizza, and Santander
On Friday, we went to the local weekly market in Colindres.
My father sits reading a book by his favorite author, Dick Francis.
What lovely chairs we have.
The kitchen.
At the market, my mother bought a shirt from the hottest, most fashionable brand in Spain right now, Guru.
Me with my favorite olive vendor.
The chef gets to work chopping and frying the toppings...
...and kneading the dough...
While we let the dough rise, we head out for some drinks! My mother tries on her new shirt.
The pizza is ready!
Mmmmm!!
After lunch (and a siesta) we headed to Santander.
We pose in front of the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria. (replicas)
The Palace of the Magdalena.
A lighthouse.
My father spots a chair that reminds him of being a lifeguard forty years ago.
"Hey you! I said no horseplay on the beach!"
Marga indulges her princess fantasies.
After the palace, we went into the center of the city to find a place to eat.
We ordered two plates, an assortment of fried things and an assortment of cheese.
No more cheese, please! I'm gonna burst!
We got home early to prepare to leave for Madrid the following morning.
