EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has said that the old world order is dead and we can no longer depend entirely on the rules based system that we inherited after WW2 to protect our own security.

For any one who has been watching for the last 4 years, this is just common sense. Yet all the fossils are now coming out to criticise her and to defend their empty slogans. Lilliputions all of them!

¡Qué maravilla, #Vigo! Como una ciudad tan remota y rodeada por una naturaleza feroz ha logrado combinar la tradición y la modernidad de manera tan bella y con su identidad tan particular, convirtiéndose en un lugar acogedor para gente local y extraña.
#VianaDoCastelo #Portugal Fascinado con esta ciudad portuguesa y con el Santuario del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús en el Monte Luzia. Un clima perfecto y con obras que recuerdan al Sacre Coeur de París o la Torre Eiffel (el puente fue diseñado por Gustave Eiffel). Y con precios mucho más amables que la capital francesa. A solo 1 hora de Porto y la misma distancia de Vigo. Imprescindible.
Un gran día en el Museo de Ciencias de Valencia. La colección es un poco desordenada pero los niños se vuelven locos con los juegos interactivos.
La Fiesta de la Virgen de la Paloma.
Madrid's best annual street party.
This building in Madrid's Calle Alcalá, between Goya and Manuel Becerra, has the distinct appearance of being fake.

Madrid Marathon day. No running for me. 40 lengths of the pool sufficed.

I've just finished reading the second chapter of Roald Dahl's biography, Going Solo, to my 10 year old. The same copy he signed for me at a similar age. Some want to cancel him but after reading it I just want to forgive him for anything he thought or he believed after the trauma of fighting in a bloody war for our freedom. He is a hero and he filled my childhood with joy and imagination. I am eternally grateful.

August in Aranjuez, Spain 🇪🇸. Storms predicted on Thursday and🌡️temperatures to drop by 10 degrees. Not necessarily a bad thing, but enjoying the heat ☀️ while it lasts.
