Spain is lovely!
Isn't interesting how the Olive Trees are so small compared to the Giant Sequioa?
How divine!

Went to Spain as a child, hardly left the airport...but there was something in the air that I loved...not sure if it was a smell or a feeling....but it remains one of the places in the world I'd most like to visit!!!

Thanks for your comment. One sees many olive trees like those. Did I mention that I shall post a piece about the ancient olive trees of Spain? Those in Castellon are some of the oldest trees in the world ; rivalling the great American redwoods for longevity.
The known oldest one is actually in Greece. Surprised you didn't see it!

Oh, the olive trees are absolutely beautiful!
I used to live in Greece and remember visiting the olive groves but I don't recall seeing anything like those. I was only 5 though...

ER ... yes, Lady Ariela broke her ankle schlepping around the mountain in the dusk.
As I sit here, I can hear the cazadores - the hunters - shooting in the mountains behind our house. Probably after jabalis, the wild pigs of the sierras

Lovely scenes, especially the mountains and flowers. The terrain looks rugged. I wonder if anybody ever goes rock hunting.

Thank you. That's what I always think, whenever I see a venerable old olive tree.
There'll be a lot more of my thoughts on this, when I post a piece about them in future

Ariel...Truly worth a thousand words......
Quite a breathtaking collage...Talk about a Kodak moment. The poppies were my favorite, and heck, I'd love to buy one of those trees. Spain, is indeed, quite beautiful...Thanks for inviting us on your journey....
