I have been taking it easy lately so there isn't much to write about. Chi is thinking of visiting Spain but he says photos are required to convince him. So now is photo time.



Lucia by the pool at my tios house.



I love the geckos that come out at night and crawl all over everything. I also love the Spanish word for gecko: "salamanquesa". If that doesn't make you want to visit Spain, maybe this will:



So fucking cute!

Because the present is geckos, here are some photos from the future that I didnt post:



In Portugal, my cousins Victoria, Pilar and Ana. Almost as cute as wall-crawling lizards.



In Santiago de Compostela, Lucia and cousins underneath structures that surround many buildings designed to keep people dry during the frequent rains. Really too bad I couldn't get better photos in that city. It was really beautiful, just too dark and rainy.



One of many political propaganda banners seen everywhere. This one in Santiago. Yeah, socialism will work really well in Galicia without the rest of Spain to help pay for it. Silly separatists.

Anyway, in a few minutes I'm going with Juan P to the library. It's supposed to be one of the best libraries in Spain with some awesome views of Toledo so maybe I'll bring my camera and have some better photos to post.
