Nice work Rhett!

Where in Spain were you?

Thanks Smooth and Tim. I was surprised how well those mile repeats went.

Fly. I served my mission in Andalucia which is the southern province of Spain. Sevilla, Malaga, Cadiz, and Granada are some of the big cities I served in. Which part of Spain where you guys in?

We were in Barcelona and Costa Brava (north to the French border). This region is part of Catalonia. It has legally been part of Spain for some 300 years but you wouldn't know it. They don't speak Spanish(they can but avoid it) and though we saw lots of flags, none of them were Spain's, not even on government buildings. I had to Google when we got home to see what Spain's flag looks like.

Interesting stuff Fly. Since I was there as a missionary I never really got into to politics of the country.

It was hard not to notice a different language and all the Catalonia flags. It was a bit like the southern US in those regards!
