The 377/1s are currently being put through a refresh programme, having been in service for nearly ten years they were starting to show signs of wear. The work is being carried out on a C6X exam at Selhurst Depot.

The main change is the seating moquette which has been changed to the standard green striped pattern; the previous grey one was specified by Connex who ordered the units.

The internal handrails have been recoated in yellow vice orange, as has the visibility strip on the luggage rack. The gangway carpets have been replaced with the black square carpet, as used on the 313s, replacing the Connex grey. The ribbed vinyl flooring at the doorways has been replaced with tough wearing black carpet.

The trim panel above the bodyside heaters has been changed, the new ones are painted for ease of cleaning, the previous trimmed versions were badly stained, mainly through the after effects of too much alcohol!

All other surfaces have been deep cleaned to restore them to a clean bright finish.

Had quite the interesting day yesterday.

Went to a sweat lodge for the first time. It was an amazing experience. It didn't feel right taking pictures at the sweat lodge because it just seemed like it was an experience that was better to have without a filter. Something raw for the soul. After the experience I was super tired and worn out but at the same time felt amazing and new.

It has always been this time of year that I have felt a strong sense of clarity, perhaps this year more so than ever. I've missed feeling this way. I feel so refreshed.

Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias by Jelltex

My 13th annual work anniverary at the wind company.

And here we are in Spain.

We are, indeed, on our holibobs.

We lay in to half seven, get up and have showers before putting on our finest summer perambulating dress and then heading down to the first floor for breakfast of fruit and fresh bread rolls and sweet pastries. And lashings of strong coffee.

Many nations represented in the breakfast bar, we ate well, then left for a walk.

It was a glorious day, clear blue skies and already getting warmer that would nudge into hot later. Best get out and enjoy the day before it gets too warm. Or hot.

The city is split by a long, sunken green park which was once the bed of the river, but that has now diverted and now is a great community green space., and our plan was to walk eastwards to the complex of modern buildings, and take lots of photos.

Even once outside the hotel it felt hot, the sun reflecting off the pavement, so we wanted to get to the park ASAP to take shelter under the trees which offered shade.

We found a ramp leading from the streets down to the shaded park, and along paths past people doing early morning yoga and keep fit classes, and birds doing it is what birds do at this time of year.

We stop at regular intervals, making the walk seem longer than it was. There's a children's play area in the shape of Gulliver, so the kids would play on his body turned into an adventure area.

Under two bridges, now over the park, and while there was some street art, mostly it was as intended when built.

It was as warm as a summer's day back home, but still only mid-morning, so we took took time in our ramblings, past faux classical columns and ornamental lakes to the Centre for the Arts, like a giant marooned Armadillo in the centre of a large lake.

After the classical Spanish design of the houses and hotels, it is quite the shock, but there is a guiding design of that, the sunken Hemisphere cinema, the Natural History museum and other buildings of the zoo beyond. Even the bridges are of a similar design.

It is quite breathtaking.

And big.

It must contain a concert hall, and is as striking as the Sydney Opera House, it looks like a cross between a space ship and a huge egg opening, lines and layers everywhere.

More so that there were so few people about, so we got fine shots of the buildings starkly contrasting against the deep blue sky behind.

The Centre for the Arts is like a space ship, marooned in a lake, all sweeping lines in a modern off white colour, though it as the Restaurant wasn't yet open for the thirsty photographers.

In fact the buildings are coated in a white mosaic, but gives the impression of being a smooth finish. But isn't.

Over a walkway and through the Hemisphere to the Museum beyond. The Hemisphere is a cinema, with the auditorium sunken below the lake. People were going in for the first show of the day, UK in 3D. I wonder what their crime was to deserve such punishment?

We find a kiosk selling beers, sodas and snacks. Even though it wasn't quite half ten, a beer was called for, and olive oil flavoured crisps.

Once we had drunk, we walked to the other side of the museum, under the bridge, and round the other side, where the water was filled with the young in rowing boats and on electrical floats, with the males on the electrical floats showing how manly they are by trying to sink the females of the species in the rowing boats. And somehow the species survives.

With the mobile phone, we were able to find a place to eat, at the base of a condo the other side of the main road, and a small bar offered tapas and wines. We ordered "several" tapas and a bottle of rose wine, the food kept coming until it almost became unfunny. All the food was fabulous, and we made the wine vanish.

We could have walked home, but instead found the taxi ranks and so caught a cab for the five minute drive to the hotel, so we could snooze through the siesta.

In the room we slept for a couple of hours, then refreshed, went out to walk around the neighbourhood and end up in the Irish bar where a pint of Budvar and a small bottle of Chimay blue was made to vanish too.

Cheers.

Next to the hotel was a small snack bar that did slices of pizza, so we had one of those each before retiring to the room to follow the football.

Evening meal at Erdinc and Emine's, Çaltepe by Mary Loosemore

Wednesday 02 May 2012: Kasımlar - Damla - Kesme - Çaltepe

A lovely village breakfast, then a short hop in the minibus to takes down the steep stretch of road from the top to the bottom of the village of Kasımlar, where we started our onwards descent on foot heading for the bridge over the river Köprüçay. Grey skies overhead, cuckoos calling in the woods, flowers by the roadside. A stroll through meadows and fields, right past the front door of the farm, and on up to the spring/water fountain and cemetery at Yukarı Fındık Kabristanlıgı, 5km from Kasımlar, 7km to go to Kesme.

After a stroll through sheep and goat grazing shrub land, it was up, up, up up along pine forested and rock strewn gully, with rockfaces towering above. We emerged into a green expanse of upland meadow, the perfect setting for a shepherd hut complete with frog filled pond. A great place for a bit of a rest and refuel, with amazing limestone rock formations in the valleys ahead, and stunning views out across to snow covered mountain ridges.

It had been a morning full of flowers: Orchids, Squill / Scilla, Daphne, Daisies, Pansies, Violets, Grape Hyacinth, Clover, Star Thistles / Knapweed, Primroses, Borage (Alkanna aucheriana).

Rested, and entertained by the local goats, we weaved our way down through the karst fairyland, and along bare rock ledges where lizards sunbathed.

We lunched at the spring and natural stone bridge at Damla, where a mother and daughter were looking after sheep, goats and cows. Across the Köprütaş bridge, Mike led us through the mysterious remnants of an ancient civilisation, with a paved pathway leading to a cave with carved portico, and stone building blocks bore carved Manx-like symbols. Skirting clockwise round the hilltop, passing ancient threshing circles, we had stunning views out over the mountain ranges and of the shining minarets of Kesme in the valley below, both demanding lots of photos, none of which really do either any justice.

A tricky bit of navigation for the initially steep descent distracted us from the scenery, and the rain just about held off for our final drop down into another limestone wonderland, parallel ridges of rock looming over alleys of grass, which then widened out encompass freshly ploughed fields on the outskirts of Kesme.

Refreshed by tea, we left Kesme in the minibus, pausing at a village house where ladies were hand spinning goats' hair. Reaching the outskirts of Çaltepe, we turned off the road and drew up at Erdinc and Emine's new chalets, complete with en suite bathrooms and al fresco dining. Lovely, albeit a little cool under cloudy skies. After a wash and putting the camera batteries on to recharge, time for tea and chat before dinner was served - plenty of excellent stuffed aubergine for me. More chat around the fire once night fell, but not a late night with those lovely new beds calling....
