Off roading in Cadiz
On our walk to the wine store last night, we saw there was a Marimekko exhibit at a contemporary art museum, and there is also a ferry to take to Puerto Santa Maria to have lunch over there, and yesterday I walked to Plaza España and saw Casa de 4 Torres – which is a house made of four houses designed to look as one facade – with four towers, it was impressive.
All this wandering started as I was looking for a gym, but the gyms I found smell like ammonia and sweat and there has been very little compelling about going into these places, when outside is the sun, cool breeze and sea air. Plaza España, Plaza San Francisco, Plaza Arguelles – or gym?
Wander down narrow streets of Cadiz where the deep blue sea beckons at the end of every journey or go to the gym?
I was hoping to find a Zumba class here but haven’t. To exercise at the gym? To find a routine like running or weights? Or to go off road for a while and just wander around sort of like my mind. I think you know the answer.

I love the point of view in these photos. It’s just the right focal point to make me feel as I am the one standing there. I stared at the last one of the walk way for quite a while, expecting to be able to smell the heat, the seashore, or perhaps some food being cooked nearby. Expecting to hear the echo of footsteps, women’s voices or gulls calling. Thank you! I’ve just been on a journey in my imagination! 😀

Marilyn – you captured it, the women walking by, the gulls, and perhaps here and there a scooter!
