Albania revisited ... and other places - part seventeen



Cadiz, Spain, where Byron stayed in 1809. ‘Cadiz, sweet Cadiz! ... Cadiz is the most delightful town I ever beheld …’


Near the city walls, I stop for coffee and churros …

… watch passersby …

… then, as last year, meander towards the flea market looking for pictures.


The vendors always make for a shot or two …

… as do the customers …

… and the merchandise is sometimes worth a browse. For instance, El Ruedo (‘The Bullring’) a now defunct weekly magazine from the height of the Franco era in 1963.

Perhaps not El Exorcismo, which sits uneasily next to Enid Blyton.
I go on a monochrome bender.
