ZUMO in Spanish means juice. I begin every day with a walk, a shower, and then breakfast, which
always has to start with fruit juice. Oranges are around a euro a kilo and make
the perfect base for whatever other fruits are in season.
Bananas - we bought some of these this morning at the local market -.jpg)
strawberries,
or papayas.
This papaya tree is just up the road from where we live - I didn't know before I saw it on one of my morning walks that the fruit grows directly from the trunk.
Continuing my Spanish words theme - here's another one.

I love the way words can still surprise me, and here’sanother Z word I found.
This road sign in Las Galletas amuses me. The road is about ten metres long, one step from the beach, and the rest of the alphabet is nowhere to be seen - every other road in this small village is named for some dignitary with three names. Calles A to Z would have made life much easier!
AND FINALLY

This one is about 20 years old, but bang on target for my final A-Z post.
If you've stayed with me throughout the A-Z Challenge, thank you - your encouragement has kept me going - and if this is your first visit, welcome and feel free to browse.
My experience of this year's blog-fest has been like the curate's egg, but thank you to the A-Z Team for their sterling work. I shall continue to visit as many blogs as I can, but I am flying to England on Friday for a fortnight with family and friends, so forgive me if I fail to respond immediately to any comments left on my blog.
