I will never forget


I will never forget
Inserito originariamente da anbri22
My greatest happiness is to recall a happy childhood,five month summer vacations in the Caleta and the Famara beach with its eight kilometers of clean and fine sand framed by cliffs of more than four hundred meters high that reflected on the beach like in a mirror. That image has been engraved in my soul as something of extraordinary beauty that I will never forget in all of my life.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

La alegría más grande que tengo es la de recordar una infancia feliz, veraneos de cinco meses en La Caleta y en la playa de Famara, con sus ocho kilómetros de arena fina y limpia, enmarcada por unos riscos de más de cuatrocientos metros de altura que se reflejan en una playa como un espejo. Esa imágen la tengo grabada en mi alma como algo de una belleza extraordinaria que no podré borrar en mi vida.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

La mia gioia più grande è il ricordo di un infanzia felice, estati di cinque mesi a La Caleta sulla spiaggia di Famara con i suoi otto chilometri di sabbia fine e chiara, sovrastata da una scogliera alta più di quattrocento metri che si riflette sulla spiaggia come in uno specchio. Questa immagine è incisa nel mio cuore come qualcosa di una bellezza straordinaria che non potrà mai essere cancellata dalla mia vita ....

Los abrazos rotos


Los abrazos rotos

A decade ago, film-maker Pedro Almodóvar took a photograph of El Golfo beach in Lanzarote. When he got the pictures developed, he could just make out two tiny figures standing on the sand. Intrigued, he had the shot enlarged, and revealed a couple locked in a tight embrace, lost in the landscape. The Secret of El Golfo, niggled away at him for years, eventually inspiring the story that would become Broken Embraces, his latest film. Although most of the action takes place in Madrid, the scenes shot in Lanzarote are crucial to the plot and set the tone for the whole film.

Obsesion in Lanzarote


Obsesion in Lanzarote
Inserito originariamente da anbri22
The first thing that strikes in Lanzarote are the roads. I love scenic roads and all the roads are scenic in this island.
The most beautiful road I have ever seen is probably LZ-67 that goes from Yaiza to the Montañas del Fuego and Tinajo passing though the Timanfaya National Park.
This road was built from the same lava material of the region, with no horizontal road markings, to keep it in harmony with the countryside.
All around an incredible landscape of magnificent desolation.
I love the road, the road carry me, the road enchants me like an obsession ...

The Blueberries place

The blueberries place

More than 30 years ago I went in Val Devero with my family and friends and I remember clear as it has been yesterday a long walk up in the mountains and the magical path with an incredible amount of blueberries along the way.

I was less than 10 but I remeber everything and in my memories this place is the Blueberries place.
Today i came back again first time after so many years. I was with my mother and the blueberries are in the same place ... we enjoyed so much.
More than 30 years ago my mother was careful with me and my brothers running on the path .... today I was careful to my mother walking on the path ... nothing seems changed ... but so many years are passed ....
