To me, this is a relaxing photo. Locals will know the spot where it was taken...the seagulls are on one of the domes above the old aquarium. Just occasionally, it is possible to forget how important the coast/beach is to this city. But even on a winter afternoon, many locals enjoy the "Breakwater Drive" to be close to the sea. Better still, walk along the breakwater if waves are not spilling over the top, as happens at times. One of those "will never forget" incidents happened at the breakwater about twelve years ago. With sons at that time about three and eight years old we were walking along the top path. I must have taken my eyes off younger son for a moment, and when I looked behind he had somehow managed to climb on top of the wall and was on hands and knees looking at the waves crashing into the wall many meters below! Though feeling incredible fear for what might occur next, I spoke calmly and walked the few steps towards him, with quiet words something like, "It's all right,don't move at all". Luckily he didn't move. Hard to believe, but quite often people of various ages can be seen walking along the top of the wall.
