The old and the new in Málaga
A wide-angle photo of the glass pyramid in Malaga that I posted before, but this time showing the Roman ruins underneath, contrasting with the modern LED lights on a tree in the background.

Malaga after the sun set
If the sky is right, Málaga harbour has some stunning sunsets. The colours of the sky are reflected in the waters of the harbour. The industrial and urban buildings on the far shore make for pleasing silhouettes defined by the setting sun.

La Capilla del Puerto de Málaga
The chapel of the port of Málaga sits right in the middle of a now busy tourist area. It’s flanked by expensive restaurants, with towering apartment blocks behind it for tourists.
A review on Google maps (and Tripadvisor) is enlightening.
This is the Chapel of the Port of Malaga. Erected as an oratory in 1531 further out in the port area, but moved closer inland, brick by brick in 1719 and inaugurated as a chapel a few years later. It was used to say mass for seamen who were often extremely religious due in part to their dangerous profession. It’s a very old building and when juxtaposed against the modernity of Malaga Port, seems oddly out of place, yet all the more beautiful. Not a must see, but worth a detour if in the port area.
I can’t comment on how accurate that review is, as I couldn’t find any “official” page about the chapel, at least in English.

The cat always gets the milk
Just in time for #caturday and this photo from long ago of a cat helping themselves to the milk from a jug seemed appropriate.

The Ten Arch Bridge at Inistioge
I visited Inistioge many years ago and enjoyed a nice afternoon there. By the river there’s a lovely a walk which we took advantage of, and today I can share one of the photos I took that day.
According to the town website this bridge was built in 1765. It’s well worth a visit!

A Frosty Autumn Morning
Lights in the rain
Rain pours out of the sky and runs along the pavement in this street in Dublin last year. It wasn’t a bad night if you had an umbrella.

Shelter from the rain
They’re heading to a Halloween party on a rainy October evening in Dublin. The guy looking in the window probably wishes he could get out of the rain, but the others around him show they’re not immune to the wet and are covering their heads.
Me? I was glad I brought an umbrella with me from Cork. I didn’t rub it in by bringing my Corcaigh umbrella…
