Y Viva Espana!

I was very lucky to spend last weekend up in the hills of Chulilla, nr. Valencia, Spain, at the wedding party of a lovely friend of mine who moved out to Spain five years ago. She and her husband are in the process of renovating her third house out there!

Chulilla itself is a tiny village flanked by hills and canyons but is remarkably picturesque - especially from the castle on the hill, and especially at night!

Here are a few choice shots for your delectation!
