I was there too
It’s not every day you see a man walk by with a cat lying across his shoulder, but this day in Malaga I did.
He was squeezing some kind of paste on to his finger, which I presume may have been a treat for his cat. That cat was very interested in what he was doing!

Washing on the line, flowers growing in pots, a satellite dish receiving signals from space. All things you see in any other back garden, but visible in the middle of Dublin city on Holles Street.

Twenty years ago on the streets of Chicago I saw a carriage being pulled by a horse and a bored driver.
Today I learned while looking up more information about these trips that Chicago banned horse drawn carriages in 2021. Prices seemed to range from $120/hour up past $500/hour.

I remember visiting the Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid and I loved it.
I visited Madrid in 2003 to stay with a good friend for a week. Back then, we only had rubbish 1mp cameras on our phones, if they had cameras at all. I had my Sony F717 with me and with a unique swivel body, 5MP sensor and 5X optical zoom I loved that camera.
Twenty years later and this photo is seeing the light of day. I love how ordinary this photo is. I wonder if that couple in the background is still together. Is the woman with the handbag still living in Madrid?
