Life in Oviedo

At our arrival Asturias showed its best side with really nice autumn weather. It was sunny and dry but the last week has been more like we expected with the standard grey, rainy and rather cold autumns of northern Spain.

So how do we spend our time here? The days are rather relaxed with some small excursions and adventures each day. Tilda is really enjoying herself. She has started to walk a lot and probably because of that she is eating like she never has before. The amount of food that her small body can absorb is rather amazing.

We meet a lot of old friends and I have been able to do quite a lot of running. However any kind of positive effects on our fitness level is heavily compensated for by going out a lot to eat at the many nice restaurants in Oviedo.  

We are almost always bringing Tilda to the restaurants and bars, which is a very common procedure in Spain, but we also took some nights during which one of us stayed home with Tilda and the other got the opportunity to go out with friends and party.

During some days we have taken the train to Gijon, where I lived during my time in Spain, and it has been full of nostalgic walks in the city where I have many nice memories.

Close to the apartment we have a nice park, el Parque del Invierno, where we go out with Tilda. The park is full of dogs and Tilda tried to imitate the local dog habit of drinking from the water fountain.
