Welcome! Bienvenidos!

A word about the color green. Traditionally blogs about Spain are yellow or yellow and red, for the sun, for the Spanish flag, for the traditional colors of a flamenco skirt or a bullfighter’s cape.  Why use green here?

Spain is green as well as yellow and red. Pastures, trees, grain in the fields, even the coastal waters; sometimes Spain is very green and many shades of green, depending on the region and time of year.

So this blog uses green to remind us that Spain is not always what we first think or what we see at first glance. There are lots of  surprises waiting to be discovered.

Come explore. Cross the bridge to Spain!
