Though Spain was not a planned stop on our adventure, the food and wine were plentiful and we enjoyed both thoroughly. Everywhere we went, we had tasty food and we even learned about authentic sangria - to be enjoyed and made on the boat at a later date. The most difficult part of eating in Spain was the time at which dinner was served...but more about that in another post.
 |
| Paella for two |
 |
| Authentic sangria with vino tinto (red wine), ice cubes, and a variety of fresh cut fruit - strawberries, oranges, grapefruit and limes |
 |
| A menu for two included pudding and tiramisu |
 |
| Galicia dark chocolate |
 |
| In Santiago de Compostelo we enjoyed tortillas espana (more like hash brown casserole) and croquettes (breaded mashed potatoes) |
 |
| Pappas Bravas - Diced potatoes, baked with a "fry sauce" |
 |
| These ice cream cones were enough to make us love Spain. The cones were dipped in chocolate and then the scoops were huge - included two different flavors (mine was peanut butter in one and almond in the other) - all for 2 Euro each. |
 |
| Tortilla Espagna - the hashbrown casserole. I found it in the grocery store and made it for breakfast on the passage to Ireland (on a calm-er morning) |

Don't know anyone who crams as much "living" into life!! You two seriously are living the dream! Thanks for your fun posts, I live vicariously through your words and pictures.
Thanks Julie! We enjoy new experiences, cultures and challenges. Like you said - it's not always easy but the rewards are fantastic - and tasty :)
