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.

Where Do You Most Want to Go in 2012?

Across The Cafe Table: Where do you most want to go in 2012 but haven’t been yet?

Yep it´s Cafe Table time with The Travel Belles again and yep I´m late again - but the intention was there. Does that count? I should get a few more Brownie points for knowing it was the day (last Wednesday) and getting around to it today (Sunday)?

Well it´s a biiiiig question. There are so many places in the world I want to go, certainly more than I don´t want to go to.

But - there are also so many beautiful historical cities in Spain I want to see, so I´m thinking doing short trips or long weekends (that sounds better and longer!) I´m going to say I want to go to:

Madrid
Avila
Salamanca
Caceres
Badajoz
Santiago de Compostela
Salamanca
Toledo and
Bilbao

In no order whatsoever only what the mind thought of. I daren´t look at a map or the list will quadruple. I´ve started small. With a busy looking year ahead I´ll be very happy to visit two off this list more would be bliss.

So in 2012 exploring outside Andalucia as well as within, anyone want to join me, Travel Belle or not? A city break?
