Regarding travel and sites in Spain:

Spain has a truly outstanding tourist hotel system, places that
include bed and breakfast at truly remarkable prices. Contact the
Spanish tourist office or consulate for information.

As far as architechture goes, Spain has some really fascinating
Romanesque and Moorish influenced church and secular buildings.
One really fine place to go is Santiago de Compastela, in the NW
part of Spain. It was at one time the end of one of the most
well travelled medieval pilgrimage routes in Europe. The art
and history and culture there are fantastic. (It is the reputed
burial place of St. James) If you want additional information
on Santiago de Compastela or on sites along the old pilgrimage route,
which is a treasure trove of historical interesting sites and arch.
interesting buildings, just send me mail and I'll dig the stuff
I have on the region out.
