Lunch near Cabo Finisterra

A few days ago Mariam invited me to sunday lunch. Carmen and her family are also invited and they kindly offer me a lift. We are to meet some other cars and, I thought, follow Mariam and her husband Manuel to their house.
In the event we set off across Galicia towards Cabo Finisterra. A very scenic drive but quite a long way. Our destination is Playa de Estorde and a restaurant of the same name.
The restaurant is right on a beautiful beach with a children's playground next door. We enjoy a long relaxed meal with paella as the main course. Conversation throughout is very animated and while I can pick up a lot more than I would have a few months ago most of the detail escapes me.
Overview

At lunch. From left around the table: Manuel, Mariam, Carmen, Genocho, self, Beatriz, Pedro, Jose, Cinta, Pilar, and Alfredo.
View out the restaurant window.
View towards Cabo Finisterra.
After lunch we drove round to Cabo Finisterra and spent an hour visiting the newly refurbished site.
I was there last October. Photos here.
