Spanish church

When I first glimpsed this church
from the Alicante
airport bus, it was almost dark and we were darting around one of the many hairpin
turns on the way to Javea. All I could tell for sure was that it was curvy and ornate,
and I thought perhaps it was designed by Gaudi, like the Sagrada Familia I
painted a couple of weeks ago…
A few days later, on my return to
Alicante in broad daylight, I discovered to my surprise that it was an Orthodox
church, quite a large one (those blue things at the side of the road below the
church are cars, not the recycling crates at least one person took them to be!) And it’s much newer than Gaudi’s buildings –
I’m pretty sure that’s a bank of solar panels at the back.
