Pig Pandemic

The WHO has just raised the alert level to 5, meaning a flu pandemic is imminent. Big deal? It seems we really don't know, but it sure could be big trouble. And for our economies, a lot will depend on how the big media treat it. So far, no cases have been reported in Malaga, where life goes on normally. For today. Daniel Arnedo arrived on Tuesday and yesterday we had a nice lunch with Manolo at Maricuchi, right on the beach in Pedregalejo. Raw clams (concha fina), little clams (coquinas), sardines, little red mullet (salmonete), incredibly fresh grilled shrimp, salads... wonderful. Today Cristi arrives with June and tomorrow Daniela will join us. Tomorrow is May Day: Workers of the World Unite!
