Spain Series - Glimpses of Everyday Life 03

A bank of bikes for hire at Seville.  Unusually, there were no punctured tyres among this lot.  They reminded me of Boris bikes, recently introduced to London.
Two men chatting at the town plaza at Zamora.  Probably because the Spaniards mostly live in apartments in city and town centres, a lot of pets were small dogs.
A congregation celebrating mass at the San Esteban Cathedral at Salamanca.  Judging from the attendance at this and other churches, there are still a large number of practising Catholics in Spain.
Harvesting oranges at Cordoba, Andalucia.  Not only were the oranges picked, the trees were also given a haircut.
A pair of helmets attached to a motorbike.  How charming, and one wondered who the owners were... 
Two small dogs came face to face in strange territory at Salamanca, central Spain.
