 Hola

 On my last night in Spain I'm musing on some numbers.
 2 weeks
14 days
3552 kilometers driven
13539 kilometers flown
7 countries involved ( Left Canada #1, stopover USA #2, arrived in Spain #3, one wild afternoon in Gibraltar, a colony of Great Britain #4,A full day in Morocco #5,3 days in Portugal #6 back to Spain to Fly to Paris France #7 and back to Canada)
3 Continents North America, Europe and Africa.
2 tired people
1 good nights sleep when we get home.
 This will be my last email ( bet you're glad to hear that) so I'm sending some wrap up Photos. 1st is of mountains, I think we spent most of our driving time going up and down mountains.

 2nd is a street scene in Tangiers. Imagine everyday life where on one side of the street a family is doing inner renovations on their house and just throwing the garbage out onto the street ( I hope to clean up later ) On the other side of the street some family chickens are eating. ( are these chickens for supper, laying hens, or just family pets? who knows ) And a woman and child walk down the middle of the street completely oblivious to any of this. A day in the life.

 The 3rd and 4th photos are of me and Joani sticking our toes in the Mediterranean sea.

 The last Photo is the sun setting over the Mediterranean and our vacation.

 Hope the people that read these Emails enjoyed the words, photos or both.
 See you all soon
 Garry
