Here are some pictures taken in Spain: Malaga, Mijas, Ronda. I will add more pictures, including photos of Barcelona
Malaga - photos show the Cathedral and the old section of Malaga. Our host is shown cooking paella for us.
Mijas - hillside cascading picturesque town in the Malaga area. The town has whitewashed buildings in multi- layers, connected by narrow winding streets.
Ronda - ancient mountaintop place with a deep gorge that separates the town. Rainy and chilly up here unlike sunny Malaga. Hemingway liked this place and used a local story of people being flung from the cliff in his For Whom the Bell Tolls. He also watched bullfights in Ronda.
Ronda bull ring was first founded in the 1500s
Detail, bull ring
