SPAIN: We learned about the dynastic cultural footprints left…from Visigoths, to Moors, to Romans…that formed the evolutionary history of today’s Espana.

Also, deeper dives into actions during the Spanish Inquisition under Ferdinand and Isabella…as well as, more recently, the Civil War and Franco regime of the 20th century…were impactful. We came away from this trip with a sense of the affinities…and the affections…the locals proudly place on the richness of their respective regional heritages; muy bueno!

SPAIN: We delighted on sampling a variety of tapas in both Madrid and Sevilla, to trying suckling pig in Segovia and…finally…to preparing (and feasting upon) paella under the guidance of an award-winning chef in Barcelona; maravilloso!
