New apartments going up across from our little supermarket. Last winter this was a field where young girls used to bring their donkey to graze and their father picked herbs. So some loss with the progress. But it seems that wherever you look there is new construction, mostly multiple dwellings. Locals all say it’s too much but a lot of people seem willing to invest. Time will tell with rising inflation whether they’ll get their money back. Meanwhile we’re grateful to be overlooking an orchard and not looking into buildings. Though if the old man who owns the orchard and the goat were to die would his children value picking olives and lemons and figs over selling to a real estate developer?
