| The watchers of the tower |
This afternoon my sister
Teresa, who was spending the day with us on the beach, suggested that we could
go to see 'La Puesta del Sol' - the sunset- from the Mirador de la Torre de Cerro Gordo.

| Me and my sister by the tower |
I accepted immediately and
we set forth with our sneakers and our cameras, ready to have a pleasant walk
on the Cerro Gordo hill and enjoy the beautiful sunlight sinking in the
Mediterranean Sea .

| Goats |
When we got near the
tower, we realized that some mountain goats
had left their shelters between rocks and pine trees and were walking
near the path that links the parking site with the Mirador of Cerro Gordo as if
they were trying to control the people who had gone there, like us, to enjoy
the sunset.
On both sides of the track
they watched how we, the sun-worshippers, adopted strange positions with our
bodies and our cameras trying to take the best photo of the sun setting on the
coast of Malaga just beyond Torrox.

| The male goat |
Today I was lucky to see
two male goats and one of them even posed for me. I took the photo from a
reasonable distance - I must admit that I am not a very brave woman when dealing with
wild animals , and I then I continued with my expedition to the Mirador.
Pedro, my husband, says that at his age he finds nothing special in watching phenomena
that happen every day, such as the sun
or the moon rising or setting. He is calm and sensible.
But I know that my sister
and I are not the only people we would pay to see scenes like the wonderful
sunset we have enjoyed from this Mirador.

| Setting sun |
In fact, today there were
many people on the esplanade of cars taking photos, like me, and enjoying the calm and the magical light of
the end of the day.

Some people had even brought drinks and food and were
having a picnic by the side of the road or giving a toast to the setting sun!
