I can only assume the cultural meaning of these masks is much different than it would be in the southern part of the USA….

Looking at the lodging photos, many of the single bed rooms appeared to have small beds. I mostly erred on the side of caution and chose two beds. Unless the listing specifically said the size of the bed, which they seldom did. It will all be an adventure for us. This is our first trip riding overseas. June 12th is our departure date.
16 hours agoIn general two bed rooms are twins, like in the photo. Each bed is small, suitable for one person. Often though, especially in more pricey places, a one bed room will contain a generous queen size, or even a king. We have found a few rooms where the one bed was barely a double. That is when you need to be good friends with your sleeping partner.
16 hours agoNo kidding, all the cars are in tight to the curb and close together. Wonder how they get in to an empty spot, or out to create one for that matter?
16 hours agoReally haven't got a clue. Cannot recall the tree.
16 hours agoTrue. He probably looked more like Steve, dark hair and beard, shorter stature, darker skin tones, etc.
16 hours agoWe have booked quite a few rooms with two beds because we are afraid that the single bed rooms will be what we call double beds here in the USA. To your experience, are the single beds typically queen size, or smaller?
16 hours agoThey must be very good at parallel parking!
16 hours agoMulberry blooms?
16 hours agoJesus wasn't blonde and blue-eyed, that we can be pretty sure of.
17 hours agoI hope we can find breakfasts as good as the one you had this day. I'm afraid I'm going to starve in Spain, with the late dinners, and being such a bread/wheat centric country.
I am whiling away this snowy and windy day in Colorado by researching Roman bridges in Spain for this summer. Which led me to an article about interesting bridges, where the Puente del Dragon, outside of Seville is mentioned. Is that on your radar at all? It certainly isn't a Roman bridge, but it is unique!
"Phoney" looking bunch of wires...

Absolutely. These are the originals and date back many hundreds? of years. The awful group of southern US yahoos co-opted the symbol of the hats and ruined it for everyone.
