My second trip to Spain coincided with Holy Week. I began in Granada, and included a side trip to Gibraltar, then back north to Madrid, Toledo, Segovia and Salamanca.

The obligatory "Booty" shot, showing various items I acquired on this trip.

What a great trip!  It was wonderful to see new parts of Spain -- particularly the Andalucia region.  There is still so much more there to see, and I am sure I will return again some day.  I really want to get to Bilbao and Santiago de Compostello -- and of course, the running of the bulls in Pamplona.  Good to have goals, right?

Had to add a picture here with the "Booty" acquired during the trip -- the usual things, like T-Shirts for my sons and nephews, more shot glasses for my collection, a Starbucks mug from Madrid, some of the wonderful marzapan confections from Toledo, saffron, tea and lavendar from Granada, and a plate with gold inlay from Toledo.  Oh yeah, and refrigerator magnets for Mom, my sister and a few friends.  Kitschy, I know -- but great reminders of a wonderful trip.
