Another Postcard - Wish You Were Here

This is how many people get here, and this is the colour of the skies that meet them. We are only about 20 mins from the airport, so it doesn't take long to reach us.
'Hello Mum'






This is an actual paddle boat, this sits down in the harbour
at the back of the bar in Benalmadena.
There was talk of turning it into a night club/casino. But it is HUGE. You can just see a car alongside it, bottom left. If you can imagine a person standing there, that will give you an idea of the size.







This is the street that the bar is on, I love to see the
palm trees, it gives the place a real tropical flavour.
But this is a rare sight of the bar in daylight. We are night people. But to see the beautiful blue skies is wonderful. You should see the stars at night, the skies are so clear, the stars look like diamonds set in a black velvet tapestry.








This picture was taken not long after we got here, and I think this is a picture of the beach in Torremolinos, in Los Alamos. That name always makes me smile, coz it makes me think of the cowboy film, The Alamo.





















These two pictures show some of the views from my casa, this is spanish for house. The one on the left is a view from the front, and the one on the right is at the back. Yes that is an Aloe Vera plant growing in the forefront of the picture on the right, they grow wild here, and get very big. I will post some more later.
PS: you should see the mother in law tongues !!! cozmic

ART WORK




This is No. 1

The one at the top right is No. 2, Bottom Right is No. 3, and this one
is No. 4. They are all made out of reclaimed bike parts.
I think they are brilliant, and they are all hanging in the bar, for all
to see.
This is some art work made by someone we know very well.

They are for sale, should you want to buy one or more please contact
us through the comments facility, at the bottom of each post.
We will then put you in touch with the artist.
The prices are very reasonable they start at 40 euros and go up
depending on the size of the picture. The buyer pays for the
shipping. Or you can always pick it up when you come to visit.


This is the latest picture, it is called
'Monster'. Self explanatory really.

Happy Halloween

Alright I know Halloween has been and gone
my excuse is there is so much to do and so
little time to do it in, so there.

This is Fred and Julia, two mean pool players

who also love to eat pizza on our terrace.


This is Hernando, one of the many Spanish men
who come to our bar, down girls he just got
married the other day to a really beautiful girl
called Irene. (We went to their wedding reception
absolutely fabulous, no expense was spared)
This is a picture of him on his stag night. It was
quite early, so he was still sober!!!
