#372 Beach Cruiser

Here is a pic of José our (ex) next door neighbour as he passed by on his mean machine. I used to have a mountain bike in the shape of a beach cruiser. I imagine his is a bit heavier than my old titanium Merlin Newsboy.

#370 Fallas

Our local district, Baix El Mar, won this year's Fallas.
I didn't mean to, but woke up at 2:30 and was wide awake.
(must be my subliminal alarm clock).
So we got up and watched the fireworks and the burning.
The firemen are there to keep the buildings wet - it wouldn't do to set the neighbourhood on fire.

#369 African(ish) music

Fire up your Spotify and enjoy these two double recordings. 10/10.

Ladysmith Black Mambazo & Friends.
Orchestra Baobab - La Belle Epoque.

Then may I recommend a Brazilian film:
Estômago (A Gastronomic Story). Tasty.

And a very old, classic American film:
Jazz on a Summer's Day. Cool.
