So you really can’t go to Cádiz without taking this iconic postcard shot of the Cathedral with the pastel painted houses on the left, the sea in front of you, and preferably with a cooperative seagull passing by. Could’ve done without the ugly building crane on the left, but oh well.

And just below this viewing spot dwell a crazy number of “sea cats”, who always look to be thriving. In fact, there are little cat houses put out for them, with food and water dishes outside them. Given the number of orange cats roaming around (even more out of camera shot) there must have been at least one big ginger tom out there having a good time recently.
Just above “cat city” I spotted several seagulls vying for ownership over a whack of small fish that were laying across one of the boulders. Clearly tossed there by someone. And then one of them posed nicely for me…
Since the central heating died we’ve been keeping warm here at Casa Az as best we can. I’ve fired up the ol’ oil-filled electric radiator and turned on the “toaster” electric heater, which almost keep the living room bearable (about 19º). I’ve also taken to covering myself with a small duvet for extra warmth when watching TV. As you can see, the cats also like the duvet option and I have to admit that having cats draped over me from belly to knees is indeed very cosy.
They make it look so easy…
Had to finally start doubling up (using both the quilt and the duvet). Cats love it.
Have to say this big guy made it hard to get out of bed this morning. He was so nice and warm…
