One of the big surprises for me on this trip is that Spain can be green as well. My picture of Spain from previous trips has been of a dry and meagre landscape, but I guess that is due to the fact that I have never visited Spain in spring. Most of the time I came in Summer or late Spring.

Right now (end of April) Spain is showing itself from the best side. Temperatures around 25 degrees Celcius, green meadows, flowers everywhere and the trees are bursting out. What's there not to like :-)
