Reflections under the bridge this afternoon.

Not been the best day for Ian, he had diarrhoea last night
that has continued today and left him feeling pretty washed out. Thankfully I
am fine, so don’t know where he picked it up from. After breakfast I walked
down the road to where I had seen a pharmacy only to find it wasn’t open.
Called into the Info Centre to get some maps of this area and the girl spoke very
good English. I mentioned that the pharmacy was closed and she could tell me
that there was only one pharmacy open in town on a Monday and she told me where
it was. Evidently very little is open on
Mondays, it is treated like a weekend! Walked to a different part of town and
got a girl who spoke English, and she gave me some “concrete” tablets and a gel
for him to take. Dosed him up and then I took my camera for a walk around the
old town. It truly is old and felt rather desolate today with just about all
shops shut, and there seemed to be many empty shops. The huge square in front of the cathedral showed
no signs of life, evidently a big market is held there on Thursdays.
Ended up at a small supermarket and picked up some suitable
food for Ian and dinner for me, don’t think we will be eating out for a bit.
Went out for another walk later this afternoon along the river, the temperatures
in the low 20’s are just so pleasant. Fingers crossed that Ian will be feeling
a bit better tomorrow. Thankfully we don’t leave here until Wednesday so
hopefully he will be up to driving by then.

Spotted this in a shop window.

The medieval houses bordering the square with the
cloisters running underneath and dwellings above.
These are still lived in.

Loved this brightly painted door!
