This is my post card from Spain

Hi Anne,
Cruise has been great so far. Sailed into Malaga harbor and headed straight for the city. This is the birth place of Picasso and his house has been turned into a museum.
Take a look at this. Have to add links because there is too much to write on a post card

Just click on the link and then on the first picture to see what I got up to in the Malaga region. I think you will be rather suprised to see what's there. I had a ride in a horse drawn carrige, went swiming, scuba diving and rock climbing. Visited the caves at Nerja, saw Ronda and went canoeing on lake Zahara.
Next stop was the province of Cadiz.
The city of Cadiz is the oldest city in Europe, facinating.
Here I went horse riding on the beach, did a bit of wind surfing and toured the white villages. Click on any of the pictures.

Next stop Madrid
The region of Madrid is unique in having only one province - of the same name, and the same capital for the city, the province and the nation. A little confusing perhaps - but at least everyone knows where it is - right in the centre of Spain.Here I checked out the city sights and the theme parks. The dolphins were great.

Now for Seville
As I got here it was the begining of Holy Week. This is an absolutely phenominal experience and I really recommend it.

I couldn't leave without experiencing the April Fair.
This party went on all day and all night long, fantastic food and lots and lots and lots to drink

Now to Granada where I visited the Alhambra Palace
The Alhambra palace is the most famous building in the city and one of the wonders of Spain. It is in a superb location, on a richly wooded hillside with spectacular views across the city and beyond. It is one of Spain’s most visited places

I also went skiing in the Siera Nevada
This awesome mountain range is part of the beautiful natural heritage of Nevada; its higher reaches are covered with snow throughout the year. It was known to the Arabs of the Middle Ages as the Sierra del Sol, as it contains some of the rarest wildflowers in Spain.

Now for something completely different.
I decided to take a balloon ride in Barcelona before seeing what the city had to offer at ground level.
Barcelona is such a vibrant city with lots to see during the day and plenty to do at night. Watching the street performers is great fun and the shopping there is fantastic
Barcelona has an impressive cultural history dating as far back as its Roman origins. The city fiercely guards its rich artistic heritage yet also fosters new modern trends. As a result there is an endless choice of cultural and leisure activities on offer, with museums, exhibitions and sculptures as well as a hearty helping of music, theatre and dance.

Well now I am back on the beach at Malaga and I am watching my cruise ship sail out to sea because I love Spain and have decided to stay
Will send you another post card soon

Barcelona is absolutley beautiful It is a wonderful city. There is so much to see, Las Ramblas, La Sagrada Familia, just to walk around the city, you would be amazed. There is a Picasso museum there that is lovely as well. Mallorca has the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen in my life though. Avila and Segovia are lovely too (the aquaduct is in Segovia). Spain is a beautiful country though. You should see something beautiful no matter where you go.

Barcelona - the streets of Barcelona are alive by day or night, providing the visitor with a safe place for strolling around, whether for shopping, eating or simply passing the time of day. There is also 1 mile long city beach with clean soft sand, ideal for sun bathing.

You can explore the city's sights by day including Gaudi's masterpiece, the unfinished Sagrada Família Cathedral, and Parc Güell in the north. See http://www.spain4uk.co.uk/places/barcelona.htm for mor details
