[ENG/ESP] Exploring the Tirano coastline: a Sunday to remember
Greetings, dear friends. I wish you a prosperous, productive week filled with those little moments that remind us how lucky we are. After Holy Week and spending quality time with family, my energy is completely renewed. I feel as though my body and spirit have found a new balance—a kind of calm that can only be achieved when you allow yourself to disconnect and embrace what truly matters.
Although the island was full of visitors, we always found a spot to enjoy the proximity of the sea. For us, there’s no need to dive into the choppy waters when we know we have the whole year to choose the perfect moment for a good dip. In reality, we enjoy sitting by the sea even more—feeling the sea breeze, listening to that eternal sound of the waves that heals everything in its path. It’s a simple ritual, but one that’s deeply our own.
Everyone at home spent this week doing whatever felt best, without pressure or expectations. The most valuable part was gathering for dinner as a family, sharing, laughing, and remembering that togetherness is the true treasure. Those moments together at the table always fill my heart.
Today I want to start the week by looking back on the trip we took this Sunday along the Tirano coast, a ride that ended at Puerto Abajo Beach. Interestingly, we hadn’t planned on going out on our motorcycles, because many tourists were already heading back and the roads were still a bit congested. But life is full of surprises. We left early to look for corn for our birds, because they only had enough left for two days and I didn’t want to carry that worry with me during the week.
After buying the corn—which, by the way, was super fresh—I felt at ease. I always pay attention to those details because I want our birds to be well-fed and comfortable. With that task taken care of, we decided to take advantage of the fact that many tourists were still asleep and went for a drive along the coast.
Saludos, queridos amigos. Les deseo una semana próspera, productiva y llena de esos pequeños momentos que nos recuerdan lo afortunados que somos. Después de la Semana Santa y de haber pasado tiempo de calidad con la familia, mis energías están completamente renovadas. Siento como si el cuerpo y el espíritu hubieran encontrado un nuevo equilibrio, una especie de calma que solo se consigue cuando uno se permite desconectar y abrazar lo esencial.
Aunque la isla estuvo llena de visitantes, siempre encontramos un espacio para disfrutar la cercanía del mar. Para nosotros no es necesario lanzarnos a las aguas revueltas cuando sabemos que tenemos todo el año para escoger el momento perfecto para darnos un buen chapuzón. En realidad, disfrutamos más sentarnos frente al mar, sentir el aire marino, escuchar ese sonido eterno de las olas que va sanando todo a su paso. Es un ritual sencillo, pero profundamente nuestro.
Todos en casa vivimos esta semana como mejor sentimos, sin presiones ni expectativas. Lo más valioso fue reunirnos a cenar en familia, compartir, reírnos y recordar que la unión es el verdadero tesoro. Esos instantes juntos en la mesa siempre me llenan el corazón.
Hoy quiero comenzar la semana recordando el recorrido que hicimos este domingo por el litoral del Tirano, un paseo que terminó en la playa Puerto Abajo. Curiosamente, no teníamos pensado salir en moto, porque muchos turistas ya estaban regresando y las avenidas seguían un poco congestionadas. Pero la vida siempre sorprende. Salimos temprano en busca de maíz para nuestras aves, porque solo les quedaba para dos días y no quería cargar con esa preocupación durante la semana.
Después de comprar el maíz —que por cierto estaba fresquísimo— me sentí tranquila. Siempre me fijo en esos detalles porque quiero que nuestras aves estén bien alimentadas y se sientan a gusto. Con esa tarea resuelta, decidimos aprovechar que muchos turistas aún dormían y nos fuimos a recorrer el litoral.
My husband and I love spending hours sitting by the sea, watching the waves, the palm trees, and that ever-changing horizon. Our son, on the other hand, enjoys the more intense beaches—the ones with big waves that seem made for his energy. That day, the sea was a little choppy, but it still looked beautiful. The sun was warm, bright, almost playful. I took the opportunity to snap a few photos that turned out lovely.
A mi esposo y a mí nos encanta pasar horas sentados frente al mar, observando las olas, las palmeras y ese horizonte que nunca se repite. Nuestro hijo, en cambio, disfruta las playas más intensas, esas de gran oleaje que parecen hechas para su energía. Ese día el mar tenía un poco de mal de fondo, pero aun así se veía hermoso. El sol estaba cálido, brillante, casi juguetón. Aproveché para tomar algunas fotos que quedaron preciosas.
I even ventured up a steep cliff, from where I could see Puerto Abajo Beach in the distance. The view was so vast that it felt as if the world were breathing with me.
Incluso me animé a subir a un gran risco desde donde pude apreciar a lo lejos la playa Puerto Abajo. La vista era tan amplia que parecía que el mundo respiraba conmigo.
We continued our walk, enjoying the sight of the fishing boats along the shore, accompanied by the gently swaying palm trees.
Continuamos el recorrido disfrutando de los barcos de pescadores en la orilla, acompañados por las palmeras que se mecían suavemente.
When we reached the end of the coastline, where Puerto Abajo is located, we saw that the dump trucks had arrived early to pick up the day’s catch. I didn’t get too close because I wanted to enjoy the sea without interrupting the work of those who were there. We sat for a while watching the fishermen go about their business, almost invisible among them, breathing in that delightful scent of the sea that fills your lungs and clears your mind.
Al llegar al final del litoral, donde está Puerto Abajo, vimos que los camiones cava habían llegado temprano para recoger la pesca del día. No me acerqué demasiado porque quería disfrutar del mar sin interrumpir el trabajo de quienes estaban allí. Nos sentamos un rato a observar la dinámica de los pescadores, casi invisibles entre ellos, respirando ese olor delicioso a mar que llena los pulmones y despeja la mente.
We headed home, but before leaving, we stopped by the bakery “El Cardón” to grab a quick bite to eat before continuing on our way.
With happy hearts, we returned home to tend to our birds, rest, and get ready for this new week that’s just beginning.
I’ll see you in another post.
See you soon.
Bye.
Nos retiramos, pero antes de ir a casa pasamos por la panadería “El Cardón “ para hidratarnos un poco antes de seguir nuestro camino.
Con el corazón contento, regresamos a casa para atender nuestras aves, descansar y prepararnos para esta nueva semana que apenas comienza.
Los veré en otra de mis publicaciones.
Hasta pronto.
Chao.
