I continue to be struck with the contrast between my life in Cottonwood and the way things happen in this region of Spain.
Many buildings are old. In the old cities the streets are narrow and parking is mostly underground. All the plazas are lit at night.
The colors are characteristically what I think of as Mediterranean.
Then there are the beaches.
