Multiplying Rail Tracks

Walked my bicycle beside a single rail track that became a double track that became a quadruple track. Stopped trespassing before I would be in a large, active rail yard.

Objects Hidden In Plain Sight

Cycled in search of objects, hidden in plain sight, that I’ve missed on previous cycle rides. Found Saturn. This and five other installations by Minneapolis sculptor, Zoran Mojsilov, occupy a small sculpture garden in Camden, North Minneapolis.

East Side Freedom Library

Cycled over to St. Paul’s East Side with a friend to visit another Carnegie Library: East Side Freedom Library. Formerly a public library, this institution is a nonprofit with a mission to “inspire solidarity, advocate for justice and work toward equity for all.”

Cold Beer in a (Former) Convent

The boys and their mom stayed behind to shop in Antequera. The rest of us hiked a few miles to a former convent, now a hotel serving cold beer. Back at our Airbnb it was announced today is Uncles‘ Day. We refreshed ourselves with ice cream, and reserved cream cakes for later.

A Random Walk through Nerja

After dinner we walked. At each intersection, our nephews threw a coin in the air. Heads, we turned right, tails, left. Once, the coin rolled into a crack between cobblestones. After a failed attempt to lift a cobblestone, we walked straight ahead. The game ended at a gelateria.
