Cobi

Whenever I want to relax I think of my iGoogle theme, which is Spanish, designed by Javier Mariscal. It changes throughout the day. Two dogs sit at a table under a palm covered awning outside a cafe overlooking the sea. One of the dogs, Cobi, wears a black beret.

In the morning the sea is blue and they are drinking steaming mugs of coffee. Later on, the sea is yellow. Now Cobi reads a book and his friend uses a laptop, while two girl dogs speed by waving from a motor boat. Later again, the friend is out in a little boat fishing while Cobi, still wearing his beret, reads a newspaper. The sea is a deep golden colour. Two fish jump near the jetty, far from the boat. The characters are dogs but in true cartoon style they have a real dog as a pet. This dog stands near the jetty and eyes the fish. In the evening the sea is blood red and everyone has gone inside the cafe except the dog, who is asleep. A bicycle leans against a post.

Once very late at night I caught the midnight blue night scene where Cobi and his friend are disappearing down the road on a motor bike.

I love this theme, along with 31,314 others. No, that must be 31,313 others, because one of the 31,314 is me.
