Now onto the Málaga province of Andalucía, Spain. I moved here almost a year ago.

I know this will probably bring back a lot of memories for the members I spoke to recently here who served in the military and had stopped over here in this area :)

Thanks for looking :)

Sarah I never realized how beautiful Scotland was. Thanks so much for sharing these pictures. Now you need to put up the Spain pictures. on this forum unless you have already done that. If I was able to travel anymore I would add Scotland to one of the places I would like to see. Have you ever thought of working for their travel bureau.

[aliray]

Sarah I think our internet postings passed in the airwaves somehow. I just looked at all the Spain photos with Hubby thanks again for posting. About that job in the tourist bureau you could do that in Spain

[Mirlito]

Hi Alison the Spain pics are below the Scotland ones. :) Both are unique, diverse and beautiful though both look totally opposite. We simple dont have the climate that the majority of Spain has, thers 4 climate zones here, the north of Spain especially galicia (celtic) is more Scottish looking.

[Honesty]

Wow!! What beautiful pics Sarah :) Thankyou for sharing them with us.

[Mirlito]

Thanks :) the biggest ex pat community here is people from back home and there are also lots of Germans, Dutch and folks from all over, I could do it hahaha

[merlinsmom13]

Wow amazing photos, welcome to the forum :D

[tonkatiel]

Thanks for sharing your photos! You've reminded me why Scotland is number 1 on my list of 'places to visit' <3

[Hobbit]

Although the pics of Spain ARE beautiful.....Scotland has ALWAYS called to me! Scots blood run through my veins,and I'm quite proud of it! Thanks for sharing both sets of beautiful pictures.

I have always loved Spain, my parents always enjoyed long vacations in Mallorca and the Costa Blanca and although I now live here I love to go home, miss it dearly and my fiancé loves Scotland.

I always wanted to visit Scotland, your pictures are just driving me to want to go even more!
