Parental inspection, 11 months later

So, my parents came to visit, 11 months after their first visit, almost to the day...It was lovely - you never enjoy the area you live in as much as when you can show it to someone else. Especially someone with the same kind of curiousness and looting and pillaging spirit as oneself - thanks Mamma!! The old "let's just go around one more corner, I have to see...", "let's just see if we can get in there", "of course we can, there is nobody here", "let's just get over that hill, then we can go back. If you want...", etc., etc. GREAT!

Some piccies:

Father and mother and me, respectively, up at the Cardo monastery. Really not too shabby up there...

Trying to decipher the Catalan writing...Work, work, work ;-)

Me and Sissi, on road and trying to get up stairs to eagle's nest (hermitage) without her plunging me into the abyss...That dog has no sense of heights.

Meanwhile, back at the farm...

That is olive oil on the table, by the way.

Probably the best shot of the Garrido compound so far...Still from our land - it's either up or down around here, baby.

Sunspot - we're OK for the beginning of March, really...
