Caught an earlier bus this morning down what I thought was a street I had not been down before but turns out I have many years ago remembered this chimney.
Created in 1896, this factory operated during the golden years of the Catalan textile industry, specialising in the production of cotton and wool. There were mechanical looms, looms for corduroy, machines for starching, machines for spinning and even areas for dyes and woven fabrics. It was a Modernista-style building, which had an exposed-brick outer wall with geometric decorations.
This chimney, standing in the square which, since 1998, has been called Can Galta Cremat (the factory’s nickname) is the only element that has been preserved.
In the afternoon a cycle again to Roquetes via the forest trails in Els Colls. Lots of grafitti about today.
Out for a couple of hours then realized why my day started early got back to the site and it started to rain.

Bus into town for coffee tried a different cafe today. If you have been hunting wild Boar and wander what to do with the skin how about this!
After lunch had a short 2 hour cycle down to Sitges a lovely day as you can see. Love the old lamp posts.
I put this house up every year I could live here in Sitges better buy a lottery ticket.

What’s on below if you are thinking of joining me !
They say in life do something dangerous every day so I did today I CAUGHT A BUS Ha Ha
Every where closed today not many people about so nipped into the back streets to coffee with the locals.
After lunch out with the bike graffiti hunting in Villanova and El Cubelles.
My bus story today is the driver closed the door early trapping a women’s shopping trolley in the doors.
The British motorhome club sites should really try a bit harder with their bin problem ?
Coffee in town first thing very busy then in the afternoon a big cycle into Villanova and along the seafront and harbor.
This car park last year had the remains of a burnt out motorhome in it so now they have stopped them parking here.
The site restaurant menu and below lovely color’s in the evening again.

Bus into Villa nova this morning the bus is now 3 times longer than last year which means it must take a different route and they still have problems with people it also has changed its number and stand in the station. I was right a different route coming back but still problems.
Lovely coffee and cake had a walk about. Back to the site for lunch then out with the bike for a cycle down to Cubelles.
On my way back noticed a bin that had eaten to much cardboard and was been sick UGH!
Washed the van when I got back then a coffee on site and after tea a walk round the campsite spotted a van that has an unusual sat nav?
