Wet weather

BA is really stretching our packing plans.  Today there is thunder and it is raining gatos y perros!! Have had to borrow an umbrella from the hotel.  First visit was the art gallery - full of surprises - Degas, Gaugin, Rembrandt, van Gogh... Now in a little cafe having empanadas (like a little Greggs' pasty), one with pollo and one with jamon y queso.  How cool is this - using freeWiFi to tell everyone what we are doing - even if all we are doing is eating pasties and drinking coffee.  This is, of course, our last day and night on dry land for quite a while...

Yesterday we dropped into the main Cathedral and, by chance, there was a  very good choir singing some James McMillan - a composer that Ryton Choral members will remember with mixed feelings!
