....took us along the coast to the Puerto de La Caleta de Vélez, just under 8 kms from us.
It is still a working port, home to many of the fishing boats that
supply fresh fish not only to local restaurants but much further afield. To one side of the port there’s a beach and to the other side there’s a marina.
It was another lovely day with a breeze once we got nearer to the port. I took little Brodie with me, my Iplehouse BID Bordy, and as you can see her hair got a bit windblown!
We eventually had to remove her bow clip before it flew off into the water!!!
Brodie enjoyed looking at the fish, they are really plentiful here in the marina!
I love how the sunshine is sparkling on the water and making it look like little stars!!
The beach was quite busy for this time of year, but today is a national holiday, Constitution Day, and Tuesday is the day of the Immaculate Conception, another bank holiday here in Spain, so a lot of people make what they call "a bridge" and have a long weekend without work!
Because it's a bank holiday, the fishing boats are all in the port today.
Even the seaguls were enjoying the sunshine....along with one lone egret who you can just see in the centre of this photo!!
I hope everyone has had a great weekend and that the week ahead is good for you all. I really must try to focus on Christmas coming as I'm totally NOT ready! I think being at the coast and having such good weather at this time of the year has really thrown me!!!!
