Cuenca, Spain
Parador de Cuenca is a hotel in a sixteenth century convent above the gorge and the town.
World Heritage City.
Local people from all over the country gathered in Cusco city square to parade in their traditional costumes - very colourful!
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.

Horse Guards Parade is a large parade ground off Whitehall in central London. It is the site of the annual ceremonies of Trooping the Colour, which commemorates the monarch's official birthday, and Beating Retreat.
There's been a baker's shop on this site for as long as I can remember. Greggs were the last, and they altered and improved the shop. I took a photo in 2016, where it had been closed for over a year and had whitewashed windows. A year further on and they are now boarded with no sign of anyone taking the shop on.
This used to be a parade of shops with a post office - the post box outside is still there - butcher, greengrocer, newsagent and Co-Op (all now gone); now it's mainly take-away outlets. Even the pub opposite (The Fountain) is no more & has been a McDonalds for many many years.
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!!

This boat is participating in the annual Corpus Christi lighted boat parade. Last year, our first year here, it was cancelled due to covid. This year there were hundreds of people lining the seawall on the downtown bayfront to watch them go past. Not many masks were being worn in spite of the crowded conditions, but a fairly stiff seabreeze kept things reasonably safe. A lot of effort went into most of these boats, and we enjoyed seeing them.
To encourage people to compost their pumpkins, a city agency invited everyone to bring their pumpkins to a local park for a pumpkin parade. They lit up the pumpkins as the sun was going down.
