I returned from an 81 km bike ride around 12:30 this morning. A bit later, my 
wife came home with supermarket shopping, informing me that lunch was going to 
be a paella with our friends Assumpta and Eliot, Eliot’s son Lucas and his 
girlfriends, and the two dogs from the respective households.

Paella (or rice, as people here simply say) is serious business here in 
Alicante, and my wife has recently joined a specialized cooking course devoted 
to this one dish—even though she has been perfectly capable of producing a 
decent paella for the past several years. But she seeks perfection. Today’s 
paella was a traditional Valencian one, with chicken and rabbit, with some 
veggies and snails added in.

Six images from a lovely afternoon (whihc is still ongoing at 8 p.m., 
“afternoon” is a relative concept in Spain).

The two dogs playing. They are both around 6 months old and go absolutely crazy 
when they are together:

Serving it, with an uncertain expression, but no need—it was excellent. The 
fridge in the background came with the house when we bought it in 2018. We have 
moved it outside and dedicated it to beer:

The two doggies get their share:

Covid or not, we can still enjoy life.
