I sure do. Alicante is about 550 km south from Barcelona, but by US  
standards that is just a short hop. I am going up there in 2 weeks to  
meet up with Hoppy and chase se?oritas together. We were gonna meet  
up in Amsterdam  but then I moved to Spain, just like that ;-)

Seriously, Spain is a truly photogenic place, as I discovered when  
prowline the streets of Seville in 2003-4. Because of the climate and  
because many people live in places too small to entertain larger  
groups of friends, a lot of the social and family life takes place  
outside.
