Fishing kids

This family were busy fishing by the port in Cabo Pino. I walked around to the end of the harbour wall to paint the men fishing but became captivated by this scene. The family had strong Northern accents. It was the first week of the summer holidays but the children were so brown with sun bleached hair it seemed that they may have been in that climate for a long time.  They had a system for luring the fish towards the boy on the end with the fishing rod. The dad was in and out of the water adjusting floats.

Another sleeper on the Northern Line

It is quite remarkable how many people pass their journey on the Northern Line fast asleep. I am fascinated by the internal body clock that certain individuals clearly possess that can allow them to sleep up until they have reached their station. Then they casually alight. This man was in no way phased or flustered and under my close scrutiny did not appear to spend even a moment wondering where he was. He slept for at least seven stations then casually woke, picked up his bags and got off.
