At the request of my most faithful readers, I return this summer writing, since I have more time.
Summer shows in these lands of Navarre more for color than by temperature. Although Navarre complain about how hot it is, the fact is that a few days we climbed to over 35 thermometers, and storms Summer relieve hot flashes (although they sometimes emphasize) and encourage mosquito bites. Fields left the dark green of spring to paint all shades of yellow: the pale barley harvest is about just to the input of summer in late June and mature wheat while sunflowers bloom. The balconies and windows, as every year, begin to be colored white and red, just a few hours of onset of the festival. In villages, smaller replicas of the great feast the foregoing, the terraces are filled, and the daylight saving time for most offices can spend time shopping, taking advantage of rebates. This year, Caritas lottery (another element Pamplona typical of summer) I have not given anything (a lot of kitchen furniture "" win a trip to India "" win a bike, "" meet several tickets to choose gift "and" a bottle of wine " I have not even collected, is all I got. Each year I have worse luck.
For those who do not know, is I'm working on a spit from a nearby village, in Belz. Sometimes the scenes are surreal: a night of rain, the landscape of Navarre, the crickets and the silence of the countryside ... walk in the door of the grill and you get ... Los Tigres del Norte. My boss, Harvey, is a fan of the calendar, or at less said that the villagers are generally defined and therefore puts. I think my mother will love anything that BBQ ... For now, managed to change the calendar, by Belanova and Julieta Venegas, if they wanted to listen to Mexican music. But let no one doubt that is heard around dawn Jose Alfredo. And do not put me.
August will be in Galicia, and if I have luck to return, but most likely the work I forbid, will mark the other rites summer: beach Sunday and Saturday from medieval markets.
As for television, the World Cup ends in the Tour de France, apart from the scandal, little interest in, and Fernando Alonso and boring winning all the prizes. My Favourite series season ends in August (House, Desperate Housewives, Lost), so there will be a great comfort to see television.
Summer Songs: OPA, I viazé a pen, Koala, and Limon y Sal, Julieta, are scrambling to get the first place, still listening Guapa La Oreja de Van Gogh and Slippers, del Canto del Loco .
In film, Cars, and I look forward with excitement to Jack Sparrow. Captain Alatriste come until September, so I'm content with the Pirates of the Caribbean, some of you could see or not to your liking.
Readings: finish the trilogy Basque "Green Valley, Red Hills" Bioy something, something Dashiel Hammett and I have several unread books out there but I think it is not summer reading (Male Slow Coeetzee and Intermittency of Death, Saramago, among al.) I think the more appropriate it is to return to Cortázar, cronopial think the world is very likely to be summer reading.
So the summer painting in the lands of the kingdom. Suggestions welcome.
