Ahola and farewell Spain

Denise and Amir from New York at Hotel de la Abalos

Today we left Barcelona and are currently in Heathrow waiting for out flight to Hong Kong in the morning. We spent Sunday in Barcelona after a long drive from Abalos on Saturday. It was hectic drive; we left about 12:30pm rather than the planned 11am as Abalos had a wine festival with 16 family Bodegas [wineries] open to the public! Behind these doors were all sorts of treasures.

We also spent time with Denise and Armir fro New York. Amir was on a search for the best bottle of Tempranillo... he was still looking when they has to go home! I have promised him some Two Dragons to prove there is such a thing.

inside this door....

..vats which must have
been built inside the house!
 The Vat had a label with
Cuba and a date [unreadable]

...and then in the room next door another!

Getting into the swing of things.

The trip to Barcelona was relatively uneventful; left hand drive wasn't so hard after all. We spent Sunday travelling around on a tourist bus; getting off at different places to see different things.  Will load photos as soon as I can. Off to bed now. Last night of our 'Tahini Moon'!
