Early Sunday

We really enjoy getting up and out early on a Sunday morning.  Quiet and peaceful, compared to the weekdays full of traffic and noise.

Cute doggie enjoying the sunshine.

No rain, no hot, perfect walking weather.

Along the river.

River was low on this Sunday, no rain for a few days.

Fun to see Cuenca wake up.  Early deliveries at the Square.

Vendors setting up at the Flower Market.

Shops are still closed.

Quiet streets..

Some serious locks on these doors.

Fun signs along the way.

We always expect this wall to fall over any minute.

The fountain in San Sebastian Square greeted us on the way to breakfast.

We love the birds!

Walking Av Luis Moreno Mora

Newcomers might be confused by some of the street names.

For instance, a street that runs through Av Solano called Av Alfanso Moreno Mora, becomes Av Luis Moreno Mora when you cross Av Solano.  Named after 2 famous brothers.  Luis was the first mayor (alcalde) elected by popular vote, Nov 1945.  Alfanso was an attorney and a famous writer.

One day, we walked down Av Luis Moreno Mora, starting at Av Solano, past the school.

Walking straight, we discovered interesting houses.

Some new construction.

Several businesses and restaurants.

Mattress shop.

Excellent yarn shop, also offers classes.

Another pic.

Next door to the yarn.

Entry.

We found sushi in this neighborhood!

Another school.

Corn crop behind this wall. 












You never know what you'll see on a walking adventure.
