I am sitting on the couch, the little heater is on... it is comfortable. The sun is a bit shy today, hiding behind the clouds, so I don't feel like going for a walk. But the trouble is that today is Wednesday. And you know what we want to do today, right? Walk! :)
There have been sunnier days for walking like the day we had to do some paperwork. It is a completely unimportant thing, i.e., it is important but not as much as some others that we have already done, and everything went easier and faster. Now, just changing my address on the permanent residence card won't be that easy. What nonsense, because the electronic headquarters of Public Administrations of the Spanish government to make an appointment in our province doesn't work we can't get an appointment to do that. And it has already been for weeks. We have to do it in the police station, but just with an appointment that we have to make through that website. We were able to make an appointment for a similar matter but it was not exactly what we needed so the policewoman working at the counter didn't want to resolve our issue. I understand, but my understanding doesn't help to solve the problem.
They said we could come back in half an hour and try to talk to another person who was in charge of these subjects. That is how this little walk happened and a coffee break in one square. At least it was sunny, so we enjoyed those nice vibes and the company of each other. Our son was also with us, so we joked that we made the appointment in the wrong way on purpose so he could come and be with us the next time when we would do it for real. 😂
After the coffee break, we went back to the police station, unfortunately without luck as they insisted we needed the appointment and nothing could be done. They constantly repeated we need to make it online. But it doesn't work, mister.
Keep on trying - that was his answer.
...
Anyway, I prefer keeping on walking so a little street artwork also surprised us that day. An artist called Alejandro Martínez García painted these walls and stairs as a commemorative mural of the work of Joan Miró.
Many smiling faces, or do I misinterpret the paintings? And a little mouse kissing the sun I think, a lady mushroom with earrings, eyes, hearts... all in all, such cool details, whatever you see in them.
...and, while I will have to keep on trying to get the appointment, although it still gives the same error as weeks ago, day by day, the only thing I can do is to... go to the police station and make a big drama hahaha or smile, as the mural suggests us.
A walk with a mixture of Picasso and Miró... at least that's what I see but .... the café has a heart... what a tender thing and I am fascinated by the decorations and the old balconies like the one on the third photo.... yes now most of the time you need a date.... to go ahead!!! Beautiful walk!!!😃
Yeah, you saw the heart too? Maybe the waitress made it on purpose to my coffee hahaha :D
Cita previa - nothing without them hahaha, I hope to be able to get it, though. Seems like a mission impossible at the moment, but someone here in the comments suggested to me at what time of the day I could try. I always arrive at step 5 when it is to see the possible days and hours and it gives me an error! 😭
I did see the heart and I love it or maybe it was there by... chance?
Previous date... always a problem, well not always, but sometimes yes.
I've left a self-portrait of myself around... I look pretty much like me....😉
I saw your self-portrait, but I didn't comment - I came home last night from work and other commitments really late, almost at midnight. Now, when I come to Malaga one day, I will watch out for the eyes of women I meet in the streets, and recognize you 😉
I am sure you will return to that paradisiacal place, I love the pictures of those terraces... they evoke nostalgia, but don't worry, winter will pass and you will be there again!
Are you sure this comment was meant for me? 😁
Although Malaga is a paradisial place too ;)
What it does to have a cold.... my mistake, sorry....
Oh my god… I soooo know getting that appointment on-line. There is a special time each day they throw some open slots on-line. I think it was around 23:00h in the evening. I sat for hours and days trying to get 2 appointments hahaha
Oh the memories 🫣 they won’t let you in without an appointment.
I hope you will manage to get one 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Lovely walk though, the sun shining makes all look so much better.
Thanks for sharing.
Jackie, thank you so much for the info, I showed your comment to Mr Mipiano, so we will be trying in those hours. We need 3 appointments, if it works out... that will be a miracle, thank you very much. You gave us hope as I already gave up on the thing hahaha 😁
You are welcome 🙂 keep refreshing their page between 23:00h and 00:30h
If you want to try in the morning 8:58h is also a time that could work. After 9 is too late again.
Let’s hope that miracle happens as 3 is difficult.
Crossing my fingers for you all 🤞🏻🤞🏻
I know... 🤐
I will let you know if we manage something
Thank you :)
🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Great 😃

Smiling relieves stress and makes you feel better. You had a new and beautiful landscape before you, enjoy it. Everything will work out in time. A hug 🤗🥰
That is true, and that is why we should take things in that way, with a bit of humour, or create some good things from the difficulties. With a smile on the face ;)
Thank you for the encouragement, it will be solved, maybe one day hahaha
the hassle sof bueracracy are a nightmare the world over what logically seems ot be a simple process can take so long and be so frustrating
love the carm of the buildings there
Thanks for joining the Wednesday walk
Have a great day
PS for the Wednesday walk, my idea was to share a walk on a Wednesday the walk does not have to be on a Wednesday, like for me for exapmle its a nice day temperature wise the warmest we have had for three weeks, but raining and with gale force winds so I wont be going for a walk today myself
Yeah, it is everywhere like that, I know. But why - we don't understand 😂
Thank you, yes, that is good that we can share our walks that happen on other days too when our schedules and the weather allow. 😇
La burocracia en la que estamos rodeados muchas no hace perder la paciencia sin embargo tu has transformado esto en resiliencia dónde el camino a un 'seguir intentandolo' te lleva a reflexionar y expresar en letras y fotos todo esto que hoy nos has mostrado.
Buen post!
Sí, parece que en todas partes ocurre lo mismo o algo parecido. Aprovechar la experiencia al máximo y convertirla en algo diferente es una alegría, a pesar de lo molesto que es.
Gracias y un saludo.
The buildings look aesthetic and pleasing to the eye. The streets are spotlessly clean and tidy. The coffee looks delicious. Bon appetit.
Hehehe, thank you. The coffee, and there was a cheesecake too, shared with my husband ;)
Your post is a feast to the eyes.
Thank you
If there ain't no coffee after then the walk is not complete at all
Miró... 😅 I hope you can do the paperwork at some point.
