I hope you do! You will fall in love~
Wonderful!
So glad you enjoyed!
I love that elaborate ceiling!
It is so uniquely creative. I agree with you~
The ceilings are a photographer’s dream. Madrid is a feast for the eyes…
It is indeed. So much richness of detail everywhere you look~
spagnolescamente e grandiosamente conturbanti 🙂

Hey! I´m waiting here, you might have passed my house, but the refugees…. you do know how many money on taxes we pay here? And now we have to spend more… get the refugess to somewhere else, the USA lets see how that goes, apart from that, still love ya, as always beautiful pictures and you should have called me, I´ll take you and your familly to the best restaurant there is , called ” Los Bravos”
Dang, missed the opportunity to meet two blogging friends in Spain. We could have had a fiesta and I could meet your puppy-dog!
Next time give me a call so we can eat a good paella
With pleasure and please bring the puppy! (:
As usual, you captured wonderful beauty … and cheers to the welcoming sign!
Thank you and yes, Thank you Spain!
These are gorgeous, Cindy, and seeing that welcome refugee sign brought tears to my eyes, love of humanity, beautiful!!!!!!!!!
People are so beautiful when they do the right thing! Hugs to you Belinda~ <3

Bonjour CINDY et bon week-end de Pentecôte
http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/120686cuicui.gif
En cette nouvelle soirée
Comme un oiseau de tendresse
Je viens te chanter mon bonjour
Comme on chante les belles histoires
Je te peints mes pensées à l’encre de mes mots
Comme on peint les jolis tableaux
Je te dessine le contour de mes plus beaux sentiments
Comme on dessine l’innocence à travers les yeux d’un enfant
Je t’ai écris ces quelques lignes nappées de bonheur
Comme on écrit les plus beaux souvenirs
Je te souhaite une bonne soirée . avec des petits bisous
AMITIE
Bernard
Merci beaucoup mon ami Bernard!
Wonderful
🙂
Muchas gracias mi amiga! <3
you’re welcome
What beautiful places you travel, Cindy. The photos are outstanding! And a big “Thank You” to Madrid!
Spain is showing it’s heart! <3
Absolutely stunning, Cindy! I’m enjoying your travels vicariously. 🙂
I love having you travel with me!
Beautiful, Cindy!
I knew you would love the artistry Resa! Cheers to you~
Cheers!
Beautiful.
Thank you so much!
So many gorgeous photos here, Cindy — looks like you’re having a wonderful trip!
So kind of you Debbie & cheers to you my friend~
Wow! Just wow!
Awww, love that word!
Beautiful beyond description.
The work of many very talented artists!
Such beauty. Thanks Cindy. –Curt
So glad you enjoyed Curt as I am enjoying your epic adventure posts~
Reblogged this on penpowersong.
Thoughtful of you and most appreciated! Be well my friend~
Oh how I loved these photos, Cindy — thanks so much for taking me to Madrid.
So glad you are joining me. We travel well together!
Oh yes you can take me there, I’m coming with you…Glorious images.
I do so wish you could actually join me Pauline, but having you along virtually is almost as nice! Cheers to you & Jack~
🙂
Fantastic architecture and designs 😀
Yes, I was blown away by the creative design.
Beautiful buildings, Cindy. I love the “welcome refugees” banner. It says something lovely about the country and its people.
My sentiments exactly! <3
Beautiful and meaningful post. I love the pictures of course but they make me miss Spain. The last time I visited was in 2007 when my grandfather passed away. I would love to return under happier circumstances. <3
Oh bittersweet memories for you. I do hope you return. We have been three times in the past four years because Spain has such a way of calling you back.
I agree and I do plan to return. 🙂
Looking forward to hearing about it when you do!
I may have shared how foolish I was as a teenager going to Spain and Portugal, Cindy. Took a camera, bought some postcards and Lladro figurines and have very little in the way of memorabilia!
I absolutely loved the churches and cathedrals but your photos create more than memories, they foster a longing to go back there! Smiles and hugs, Robin xo
This is what Spain does to you. There should be a warning label: “Visiting Spain may cause addictive desire to return in certain susceptible people.”
What magnificent ceilings!
Aren’t they unique and stunning. So glad you see this too~
España tiene algunas de las más bellas iglesias, Cuz, y tus fotos son la evidencia de la misma. Espero que usted está teniendo un gran tiempo…, abrazos!
Ahhhh, abrazos y felicidades mi primo mejor!
Such incredible images!
Oh thanks so much, this is because they are incredible places.
Beautiful architecture.
Yes, just think about how much architecture and design all over the world originated from Spain.
And the richness of it all is amazing, that’ll never be replicated again, so much money spent and quality craftsmanship.
I agree with you completely.
The sign of welcoming refugees is sure a nice, and surprising sight to see ~ and you’ve painting the scenes of the cathederal so very well. Love your last shot ~
Long rows of arches, especially very old ones, make interesting photographs. Glad you enjoyed % cheers to you~
Cindy your photos are always so alive. What camera do you use?
Awww, thanks so much! I use a Sony HX400~
That is so good to see that poster! Spain has a heart. Here in Aracena the local people still take children for a holiday who live around Chernobyl so they can get cleaner air! I think that disaster was 1986.
How wonderful and I am so sad I didn’t see this comment until now. Spain does have <3
How true-we are all refugees. If only we treated each other that way…
Agreed. Pretty discouraging that we are backsliding.
