GB, Fabulous architecture, plant life and skies. Gorgeous butterfly, you seem to get lucky with butterflies! Excellent photos and the woman in white was pretty classy too

Thank you for sharing. It was lovely to see it all without the travelling and the heat It all looked so pristine and bright, even the old buildings.

Of all the places we visited I can highly recommend Nerja, which had enough interest for every member of the family. The Nerja Caves are stupendous, there really aren't words to describe the feeling you get inside. It's exciting and spooky at the same time. I'd avoid Cordoba like the plague. Our tour of Granada was brilliant, from the top deck of a tourist bus. The Alhambra speaks for itself. We spent one night in a small town called Cerro Muriano, 17km from the city from hell, Cordoba, our substitute hotel was and cheaper by half too. The Spanish family who looked after us were wonderful, and when I entered the hotel room and was shown the facilities I would have been happy to have been being admitted for a surgical operation, it was that clean. A pleasant change from some places I had the misfortune to stumble into

I am glad you liked the plants Webby, because I photographed them for you. I was the only witness to that particular butterfly

Oh, bless, thank you My son saw a Swallowtail when he was in Turkey and managed to take a photo of it on his windowsill. Wish I knew what happened to the photo. He is a minimalist so it has probably gone the way of so much other stuff.

Can I give Willem the link to your photos, I am sure he will be interested.

Of course you may, they're for public viewing. I haven't uploaded the ones who didn't want to be shown

Thanks. I am sure he will be interested.

That's my holiday written up, with a blockquote section from Gordon describing the river walk he went on (while I stayed at the villa snapping a butterfly)

I've sent along photos to enhance but they can't be blobbed in time, so Bel is going to hold over printing my account until the following week. Sorry to make you all wait, but I hope it'll be worth it in the end

As promised, here's my Andalucian Adventure in The Post, along with 2 BLOB photos, thanks Bel
