Monday Morning Photo - Wisteria Time in Andalucia

How quickly spring comes around after the short winter here in the Sierra Sur de Jaén. After lots of very much needed rain we´re back to the normal cloudless blue.  My garden is shooting incredbily with the moisture and now sunshine. And my beautiful wisteria flowers grandly albeit it short-lived. The big black carpenter bees love it. Each flowering season reminds me of the Botanical Gardens in Malaga and the ´tunnel´ of wisteria that I haven´t yet caught in bloom. April is a good time to plan to go if it´s on your list.  Here´s the botanical garden link La Concepción Botanical Gardens. And a sneaky peak at the wisteria. See the Monday Morning Photos list.

Monday Morning Photo - Osuna quarry, Game of Thrones Setting

Hardly a normal place to visit when exploring towns but the Osuna quarries or Canteras de Osuna kept cropping up in my research, even before Game of Thrones was filmed there. Typcially, for us, they were closed when we arrived but still quite remarkable.








I haven't yet written about Osuna but have a post on my other blog about where we stayed - the 18th century Baroque Palace - Hotel Palacio Marques de la Gomera
