| Sometimes I'm asked
what Spanish sites are not to be missed in a
visit to Spain, to which I normally
respond: the Alhambra
in Granada, the Mezquita
in Cordoba, etc. Funny thing is, some of the
Spanish places I have the fondest memories of are
not on my "must see list," things like
my visit to the cave home in Guadix, the walled city of Laguardia, the Roman ruins in Merida, and the Palace
of Lebrija in Seville.

A Pro and Con look at Group / Bus Tours -
I prefer to travel on my own, but there are times group tours can make sense-for example, a day excursion from a major city or traveling with friends and family. This section takes a look at the options and provides links to some resources.

RUNNING WITH THE BULLS OF
PAMPLONA
