Last day in Spain

22 days in one of my, well actually, my favourite place. It has been a great visit for me. I like it here.
My last day was well ended with a conversation with my favorite group of Spanish people, old men.
I was wandering in the bus station in Santander, waiting for my bus. Up toddles an old man, smaller than me. He was well turned out, tie, cardigan, jacket, hat as the people seem to take pride in their appearance. Here was me in my ratty hiking gear and backpack. .. Anyway, "que buscas " he asks, and from there I got to spend the last 20 minutes in Santander chatting with him. He told me it was "una ricesa" to work with children. He also asked "what kind of person does that? When talking about the police in America shooting people . I wonder what the answer to that question is?
So back to Dublin I go with fond memories and plans to return.
Fue un buen viaje.Read more
