HIKING IN SOUTHERN SPAIN



In September 2009, I took another of my beloved walking/hiking trips—this one exploring the area between Granada and Sevilla in Southern Spain. Each trip is so different and so wonderful. This time I traveled with Country Walkers. I’ve also used The Wayfarers, and I highly recommend both companies.
 

My dashing appearance in this

light. In reality, I’m sweaty
and I have really bad hat hair.
      
I saw this poster as we walked into one of
the “pueblo blancos,” the white hill towns.
