Leavin' on a Jet Plane

Well, it's Monday morning and -3°C here. The birdbath is frozen solid. Snow left over from last week refuses to melt. I've an icicle dangling from my nose. And I dare not use the outside toilet lest I become frozen to the seat and be forced there to await, hermit-like, the coming of spring.
 

Valencia today: 12°C.
 

All I can say is … Roll On Departure Day!!! 🌞🌞🌞

I even saw a cat sized hole in the wall that looked like a little home for cats!(Photographed below) Maybe this isn't the only one in Valencia...

They say the hardest thing about planning a trip abroad is deciding what to take with you. And oboy aren't they right! I mean, once you've factored in the bare essentials (hair care products, paisley shirts, maltesers and so forth …), you've hardly any room left over for the little luxuries. So, I'm only going to be taking one book. Question is, which one? I've narrowed the list down to three books with their different pros and cons. For the curious, here it is: The Master and Margarita, by Mikhail Bulgakov   Pro   A bow tie wearing, cognac drinking talking cat. A séance of black magic. It's a love story ❤️    Con I may get so into the book it takes over … All my Spanish money magically transforms into roubles and, unable to buy food, I must starve. Gravity's Rainbow, by Thomas Pynchon Pro Never a dull moment. A goodly length. Con I may get so into the book it takes over … I spend my whole stay in Valencia running round the beach in a pig costume, singing di...
