December 24, 2014 and most of the creatures were stirring today.
The grocery store was a ZOO, but a dog still chose to catch a few winks in the entrance as hundreds marched around him.
We ventured out in search of gold, frankincense and myrrrh - spent gold, passed on the Frankenberries, opting instead for the more sensible fruit market, and weren't completely sure what myrrh was, so went the safe route and bought Chilean wine as a reasonable facsimile.
One minor fox paws, we wanted fresh fish and shrimp for tomorrow so went in search of the freshest....ended up on a trolley, and at a very good, cheap, family-run restaurant where they gave us Pisco and Amaretto shots with lunch as a "souvenir". One of us ordered Paella, which we should have shared, I ordered ray fish, a nice white fish. All was excellent and we have enough leftovers of Paella for about 5 meals so don't worry about us going hungry.
Put on a lot of mileage today...10 miles, by our trusty pedometer. Hot and sunny!
