" ;-) But I love it!!!! :-) This is the first post I opened at 6 am. it's cold out side, our home has not come up to my comfy level temperature yet and what am I looking at? First of all a wonderful warm old villagescape of peaceful photogenic beauty. This gives thoughts of... "OH please let me win the lottery so I can fly over there and shoot these kind of villages in peace and quiet!" :-) Of course not by riding a bicycle on those up hill roads, but a comfy car :-) .... of course with a driver! I mean why would one want to drive and have to watch the road? A driver allows you the comfort of watching for roadside beauty spots and not road and traffic. Been there and done it this way....... trust me, it's the only way. :-) But then in the village quietly stroll about just happy snapping away to your hearts content! One at times must be a dreamer to enjoy some parts of their lives. :-) Another story telling photo for the Spanish Department of Tourism! :-) Good on you! :-) cheers, ted
