"It was after midnight in Torremolinos in Spain, as I walked out of my hotel and walked down the steep incline towards the beach. On the way, I saw an intriguing green metal gate in front of a home, above which on marble, it said "Jardín de las Mercedes" or "Garden of the Mercies" of residence number 28. At the beach, it was dark and calm. There were "palapas" or palm-leaf shelters along the beach. The only other person that I saw that night looked like a Mexican, promenading."
