Monday Morning Photo - Wisteria Time in Andalucia

How quickly spring comes around after the short winter here in the Sierra Sur de Jaén. After lots of very much needed rain we´re back to the normal cloudless blue.  My garden is shooting incredbily with the moisture and now sunshine. And my beautiful wisteria flowers grandly albeit it short-lived. The big black carpenter bees love it. Each flowering season reminds me of the Botanical Gardens in Malaga and the ´tunnel´ of wisteria that I haven´t yet caught in bloom. April is a good time to plan to go if it´s on your list.  Here´s the botanical garden link La Concepción Botanical Gardens. And a sneaky peak at the wisteria. See the Monday Morning Photos list.

El Torcal de Antequera

While writing about Ronda and looking through my photos of our trip there, I relive the motorhome weekend that my family of five had. It´s a rare occasion these days that five of us travel together, but I´ve some great memories of that weekend and our experiences.

Picking up the motorhome we crossed the aquamarine reservoir of Iznajar and headed towards Antequera. We got away far later than planned and spent the night down a country lane near El Torcal de Antequera, as overnighting in the park is not allowed. El Torcal is an incredible nature reserve of surreal weathered Jurassic limestone.
