Photos from the Road

Before we started driving all around southern Spain, we went to the Madrid Temple.  I love that there are temples all over the world.



Outside of the temple, there are some olive trees.  Jason took this really nice picture of one with the temple in the background.

 

Then we drove south.  We saw quite a few windmills.



They are much bigger than they look.  We saw some windmill blades being transported down the freeway.



It's so much bigger than I thought.



Some of the windmills date from 600 A.D.  The ones below are the famous ones that Don Quixote mistook for giants and tried to joust.

 

We also saw a giant bull billboard.  They are posted periodically near the highways and freeways.  It's an icon of Spain, and it is pretty nifty.


Also, there are miles upon miles of olive groves.



And our favorite road sign:

 
Hollis interpreted it as "Caution: Motorcycles doing endos.

Also, there were amazing rolling hills of green.

 

And this was the outdoor hallway of one of the cheapest hotels we stayed at.  It was so classy for not very much money.  I loved it!
