Bringing pollen back to the Beehive


Impressive beehive built in a small natural cave.

I could have spent hours looking at bees coming in and coming out.

Relaxing and beautifull.

My new bike

Yes, this is my new bike.

I have about 15 km from home to my work place. Going by bike is the most planet friendly way, unfortunately I'm not in good shape.

And here is the trick: I've bough an electrically assisted bike!!! I already tryed it once and it works, I've been able to go and come back in quite good shape.

I'm changing 3.5 EUR of gasoil for 0.05 EUR of electricity, that in Spain, has a big chunk of renewal energy.

The only weak point of the system is the battery. Don't know it's carbon footprint, but needs to be replaced every 2 years, or that's what they have selled me.

I can tell you it hurts!!!


Yesterday in the afternoon, weakened by a terrible could, don't know how... it felt from my hands to the floor, a hard floor.

I can tell you, it hurts more than this.

CASIO RKJ-166


Yes, I'm the owner of this beautifull watch.

I have no idea of the meaning of the Kanji characters on it. They are not the typical Japanese characters for one, two, three... The only characters I've been able to identify are: 日曜日 meaning Sunday.

After years abandoned in a box, the recent tragedy, has brought my old Japanese watch back to my hands. Today I tried to replace it's wasted battery by a new one. It didn't work. The clock that measures time, the same time that makes us old, the same time that clocks towars our end.

Sard


Diplodus sargus sargus close to catch a piece of bread.

The young "Sards" have caracteristic black vertical lines acros the body with a bigger one on it's tail. When they grow up this vertical lines disapear except the one on the tail that remains. Can you see it on it's tail?

Javier Rami

Javier Rami explaining the details of his icredible masterpiece: a manger full of moving statues.


Located in his garage, in Peralta de la Sal, Javier likes to explain to visitors all the tiny details and scenes that he has recreated: from day to night we have seen snow to fall down, a cocodrile eating a goose, the smith forging a sword, mother pig giving milk to its piglets. Two kids play with a baloon that moves from one another. Smoke is coming from the houses, it's thyme that burns as needed. The anglels descending from the roof of the garage... till more than 300 moving figures.

This manger is powered with a complex labrint of recycled engines, compressors, pumps, hand made power control rouletes, bicycle chains... all of them working in harmony to give life to this incredible engineering marvel.

Don't miss it if you can!. Will open from dec-4th to Jan-6th, saturdays, sundays and holidays from 11 to 13 h. and from 16 to 20 h. More information at: +34 652 094 523
