  Praca da Republica, Elvas, 2015
  
  I have always loved how the Portugese tiled their squares and often their streets. Praca da Republica in Elvas is a fine example. Elvas is a hill town and former military citadel on the frontier with Spain and successfully defended itself against three Spanish sieges.

  If I take a good photo it's not my camera's fault.

  Gjesdal, you shouldn't be so shy. If you can't show this shot, then you can't show shots of the beach. And what a great shot it is.
  
  My submission:
  
  World's Best Ham, Barcelona, 2015
  
  There are a few reasons why this was my fourth trip to Spain, and this is one of them. The Iberico Jamon - which is simply put, the world's best ham. There were five grades for sale here ranging from about 80 Euros per kilogram to 195 Euros per kilogram. Sorry Italians, while I love fine Parma ham and spent a fortune on it in Rome last March, I am not sure it is good enough to compete in this lineup. I didn't fly 8,000 kilometres to be cheap either. Every day it was the expensive stuff. Final bill for ham on this trip? Over a thousand Euros.

  Hopefully it was a different view. I'll take a look...didn't mean to post the same one two days in a row. Absentmindedness.
  
  Darn, it was the same. Opps. Sorry about that.
