This little covered alleyway has always fascinated me. I have never had the nerve to drive up it but whilst I was stood here attempting to sketch, at least 5 cars passed me; I had to jump in the doorway on the right! Most of them looked at me in amazement (why would anyone stand there?! Crazy foreign woman…) but I did get a couple of cheerful waves. The name of the street actually means covered alley. There was a real contrast of bright sunshine at the top and a shadowy tunnel which I have tried to capture 🙂 This is a photo I took from the other end. As you can see by the windows with blinds, somebody must be living over there…

Working outside you have to consider.. weather, wasps, weirdos.. well-wishers..

Very good sense of perspective captured ther. In nearby Vejer de la Frontera, there’s one almost identical, but traffic isn’t allowed up it.

I’ll look for it next time I am there. I love the Moroccan restaurant/hostal in Vejer 🙂

Your drawings really evoke Spain for me.. going back in 2 weeks for a good few months and I can’t wait! I’m on the other side of Andalucia though, between Seville and Cadiz but in a small town

I enjoyed this one, reminded me of the little alleys all over Cyprus and Israel. Guess I need to visit Spain as well. Hopefully soon. Have you heard of the Camino Santiago? Would love to make the pilgrimage myself. I’ve found that I can start just outside of Moscow. It would make the journey a lot longer, but then it would be twice as interesting.

Yes, I have heard of it and have in fact been to Santiago de Compostela. I have a friend who is hoping to walk the camino from Gibraltar. Long way from Moscow!
