Okay, here are my reasons:
1- How cute are these guys, they bleat and walk around eating all day and the really cool ones wear the bell.
2- I could be here – In Basque country. In the rolling hills and lush green pastures.
3- Besides the smell (which is not the most pleasant I have experienced) the country living, with the fresh air is fantastic.
4- And I can not over state this at all – – – FRESH GOAT CHEESE ROCKS!!!
We left Portugal behind and after traveling through Castile and Leon
we found ourselves in an area looking more like Austria than Spain. The weather had turned so instead of shorts and T-shirts we were wearing long pants and jackets. It was 39 degrees on Monday morning – my Florida blood was not liking it one bit. The sun did manage to come out and we hiked the mountains and enjoyed the sights.
We have traveled north and are currently in Bayonne, France. Six more nights until we fly out of Barcelona and on to our next destination – Scotland and Ireland. I will update the itinerary shortly. We have to get out of the Schengen area of Europe – only 90 days out of 180 can be spent in the main continent. Also you know what they have lots of in Scotland and Ireland?
