A photo you took, today

That's the Valle De Los Caidos, near Madrid. Basically a massive monument to Franco's dictatorship, and a very controversial chunk of Spanish history.

Spot on Dave. The Mrs had been reading a book about it, and just happened to be driving up to Santander for the ferry last week and passed nearby, so visited. Very controversial as you say, and virtually deserted. Worth visiting for what it is, but not what it represents.

Very nice cool mountain road today for four hours over all the tops in western Honduras. I loved it. We’re heading across country on the smaller roads to avoid traffic and the coastal heat. Vultures are everywhere in all these countries but today we saw some new sights. A really skinny, almost dead dog looking ready to drop and just beyond, a granny rooting through the rubbish tip outside town. I can’t help thinking her and the dog are on the same trajectory.
Then we saw a vulture chewing the arse out of a roadside dog. Next we say about thirty vultures on the side of the road, some just sitting about, some sunning their wings, a couple scrapping. Then I saw a dog, belly button deep in a horse and it became clear. The vultures were waiting for their turn.
