Sidetracks And Detours PASS IT ON weekly walkabout volume 14

At the party held in the La Aurora center in which several generations of fishermen and fishermen's families came together, and Raquel Rodríguez already said that in Playa Blanca "it is difficult to find families of a lifetime that are not or have not been related with the more than sacrificed productive, artisanal and sustainable activity key in the development of the town, on which some thirty families of the town continue to depend directly" , in addition to the added value that "fishing represents for the restaurant and tourism sector local and insular".

PASS IT ON 7 along your weekend walkabout

From grandparent to young married couples, flirting teenagers and tiny disco-tots, they were all there ! Young mums were swaying to the music with babes in arms, whilst toddlers were leading dads and mums in a merry dance around the throngs of thirty somethings and the best dancer on the concrete floor was a lady of grandmother-age who was throwing some serious shapes. There were resident families and tourist couples (and maybe even some Kentish Plovers had flown down here too). There was no need for stewarding or policing, and whatever security there was, remained undercover. Apart from us, every generation we could see appeared to know the words to every song and lip-synced them as they danced. There were only smiles exchanged between us all, and the only way we could tell this wasn´t Glastonbury was because there were no mud-baths.

Of course we will continue building our bookshelf because  we would like to squeeze in Lady GaGa
