Sunshine.

A serious number of tapas bars.
All with quaffable wines. The tapas bar next door has their own, excellent red vermouth. ‎
Some bars have outstanding tapas! And it’s BRILLIANT fun, finding out which one!

Seriously good food.
eg: La La Galeria “Home again, home again, jiggy di jig.”
Nice to be remembered.
Even nicer to have nice food 🙂 So far, had an outstanding mushroom risotto.

There are two theatres, and a special events auditorium.

Even the main theatre does weird 🙂
Eg: ‘Boris&Ingrid’. Quirky.With a young musician that I thought stole the show. Used sampling to build layers to his playing and singing. Clever. A good musician and singer. Not a bad stripper either. But you had to be there.

My favourite is an “off-Broadway” theatre.
Type of play?
One was about a car crash, and insurance scams. You had to be there 🙂

This theatre doubles as a cinema. Mainly on Wednesday nights. Showing classic/cult movies, in a variety of languages.
One such was ‘Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot‘.

Fresh vegetables.
Organic market on Saturdays.
Regular markets every day.

Fresh bread every day.

Personal favourites?
(1) Homemade orange&chocolate galleta (cookies/biscuits)
(2) Corner shop that has Pedro Ximenez sherry AND Jamon de Teruel
(3) Organic shop that carries Canadian maple syrup
(4)‎ Tongue sausage with pistachios.

Am in a two bedroom apartment, where Julia comes in to clean once a week. All the above, is within easy walking distance. ‎
And the bike has underground parking.

Even when it snows all morning, this is the effect……

…..and even that disappears in the afternoon.
