JARDIN BOTANICO

Lovely day at the Jardin Botanico, high in the hills above Malaga. It was a difficult decision choosing a blip. I was leaning towards featuring a pensive Professor perching below a pagoda, but he said that now Blip had been saved it would be a pity to decimate the membership as you left in droves, appalled by his appearance.

I've started a regime of twice daily power walks along the seashore and pumping a bit of iron (haha) at one of the many outdoor gyms. I'd love to feature these gyms on blip, but it seems to rude to take images of people sweating away. I'm impressed by how young, old, obese and super fit all use these facilities with no self conciousness. They are family affairs too; little ones mimic their dads doing press ups and parents watch enviously as thei kiddies hang upside down money fashion. Meanwhile an army of cats patrol the shoreline. I'm not sure what you say to a Spanish cat - calling 'Puss! Puss!' doesn't work.
