Is my hunch about the dark “roll up” doors to block out the sun as well as prying eyes ?

Many streets and walkways are intricately paved here.
6 months agoHi,
“Our Lady of the Head” sounds like the patron saint of ship’s toilets, but I’m guessing the head refers to the hill upon which it stands “cerro do virgin” (forgive my attempt at Spanish). Maybe you should offer a candle for relief from the head winds!
Cheers,
Keith
We rode the 30 km Afsluisdyke twice with no problem! I am standing outside Carrefour in Nerja with the bikes, typing this, but I just had to jump quick to catch Dodie's flying bike!
6 months agoAt least you should have a restful sleep being so tired from all of that unnecessary activity..I liken your wind problems to The Netherlands canal rides.. Or, maybe The Netherlands is “tame” compared to what you just experienced?
7 months agoThis is SO depressing! I was certain before reading your comment that the trays were blown out from the wind on the truck! :(

7 months agoWhy are the windows barred at the TOP? Are they afraid someone will climb up onto the roof and rappel down?
7 months agoHad to chuckle about the wind... Growing up in Mojave, CA was a wind adventure. For years after I left, I carried newspaper clippings of damage during high winds with gusts exceeding 100 knots. We routinely had picnics using paper plates that we held down with the heel of one hand and held onto our sandwich with the other. Typically pbj, which tends to hold together pretty well. Visited with friends from college, and a girl in the group said she would never doubt anything I said again! Yup, gotta hold onto your food or it will blow away. I do not regret not returning to Mojave to live. It literally took me an hour to push my bike home against the afternoon wind if it came up on a day I rode the mile to school in the morning. I do feel very sorry for you having to battle those winds on a bike. I fully understand! Hang in there.
