There was some kind of construction project going on here, but we weren't quite sure what it was. It always intrigues us, how there is no soil here, just sand - no matter how deep they dig. Kinda explains the reason for sink-holes in the highways after a lot of rain. Anyway, we passed the digging site and carried on up the road on our gravy mission. The next thing we espied was some fruit trees growing wild and loaded with fruit.....
On closer inspection, this is what we found....I'm not sure it they are tangerines, or clementines - any guesses? There were lots of them on several trees blowing in the breeze. The darn thing moved in the breeze just as I shot a photo - so it is a tad blurry.
A little further on, and we found this building. Poppa says it is a processing plant of some kind - he wasn't sure if it was water or something less appealing - but it was tidy and clean and well tended.
Not to be dauntd by the increasing heat, and the steady, strong wind, we carried on and soon we could see that we were indeed getting closer to our destination - there's that big building - still off in the distance, but not so far as when we set out..
