Cuenca, Spain
Parador de Cuenca is a hotel in a sixteenth century convent above the gorge and the town.
World Heritage City.
St. Patrick’s Day parade in Bunclody and a lot of people turned out both participants and spectators, all relieved to be out together celebrating being Irish post 2 years of absence due to COVID.
The splendid, if occasionally jaded, late Georgian / early Victorian houses and hotels cosying up to the cliff on Marine Parade in Dawlish have a grandstand view of both the railway line and the sea-front. Something the lucky residents will no doubt appreciate, especially on dour, damp autumn days.
For anyone watching now they will see Cross Country's 9.42am Newcastle - Plymouth Saturday's only HST service (1V54) hurrying by trying to make up some 10 minutes of late running. Sadly it was an ask too far on this occasion with arrival in Plymouth also 10 minutes behind schedule.
Doing the honours are power cars 43321 up front, and 43207 nearest the camera. The train is just about to enter Kennaway Tunnel, one of several short ones on the stretch to Teignmouth as the line alternates between burrowing through the cliffs and riding alongside the exposed seawall just feet from the water.
When the shot was taken the seawall path was closed as a prelude to engineering work to raise it and better protect the railway from the increasingly frequent and damaging winter storms - work that is now complete.
Almost two years since this shot was taken, but seems like a lifetime ago. Best viewed full-screen - commenting off for this one, thanks.

It looks a bit overcast but the temperature was quite mild on this walk to the seafront with Tim. I was on a mission to look for stones to bring home and paint - shhh, I know it's not really allowed, but I don't think it would be obvious there are some missing! As it turned out, most of them were too small but I brought a few home from further up the beach!
Here you can see South Parade Pier and a couple of deckchairs - quite a rare sight on our beach despite them being manufactured by a company called 'Southsea Deckchairs', whose warehouse is next door to the one Tim works in!!
On the way back to Moabit and I spotted from the side of the road these bizarre looking industrial towers. I have no idea what they do, who owns them or for what reason. But still, they looked like soldiers to me.
Hope everyone is well, thanks all for al the follows and the new ones as well. So as always thank you! :)
