Valentin,

We do really do better with a still to introduce you glorious panoramas from Spain. Everyone should be encouraged to visit and comment.

Heres' the location of Pontedeume:

Google: Sattelite Map Pontedeume in the North Western Corner of Spain​

So where is Galicia? In simple terms it's not to far from Antonio in Portugal and 390 miles,, (628 Km), a day's drive for Nicolas Claris in Bordeaux France. Just a short flight from London with Paul and Nigel and more folks of OPF, but Valentin is the first person here, I know to have brought us pictures.

"Galicia is located in the green and lush north western corner of Spain. Geographically, Galicia is situated just above Portugal and faces both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mar Cantabrico. This part of the country has an economy based on fishing, farming, agriculture and increasingly tourism. Galicia also has a climate offering four separate seasons and is actually pronounced "Galithia" (the "ci" pronounced as "th" in spanish).

Right, a valley in Galicia's Lugo province in the central part of the region.

Whilst a part of the mainland, Galicia is an autonomous community with a cultural heritage, climate and geography that are distinct from the rest of Spain. Although the region's history and scenery are often promoted as the areas main vacation attractions, beautiful beaches fill the "rias" (bays) of three of the four provinces in Galicia and the scent of pine and eucalyptus are ever present."
