Incognito Thanksgiving!!

The great thing about celebrating thanksgiving in Spain is that we were the only ones doing it around here. This makes for a really short wait a the restaurant :-}

There is this little town called on the banks of the Ulla river. Quiet and hard to notice but it has this little restaurant in a "Pazo" (manor) called "Villa Verde". Endives and Sea urchin salad :-}
Monkfish with Setas (shiitake mushroom) and top-of-the-line galician beef. Plus homemade desserts. :-}Anyways. I have had these snapshots of a trip we took in the early fall (north coast of Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, and Bilbao) ready to go for a while:

The first one is from Santillana del Mar. Nice town which has great set of prehistoric paintings (in a cave), and historic quarter split mediaval and 18th century architecture.

The second and last are from the Guggenheim in Bilbao. Nice building. The Flower Pupppy is still there but they were about to change exhibitions. The one to the right is on the border between Galicia and Asturias. It is called "Praia das Catedrais". The ocean has eroded the cliffs in such a way that arches formed and pleople can walk through them at low tide, hence the name.
