bars, or a peaceful strip of coastline in a rented villa, Spain has all
bases covered.

The Spanish Way of Life
The Spanish start late when

Flamenco is another form of Spanish entertainment. Over 200 years old,
it blends song, dance and guitar into passionate and romantic rhythms.
Whether its flamenco shows or banging nightclubs, Spain entertains all
round.
Paella
is Spain's National dish, one meal you MUST try, and another traditional
cuisine is Tapas, picking and choosing between small dishes of seafood,
squid, meat, vegetables and potatoes. Spain also produces some very fine
wines, using vineyards from all regions, the La Rioja their most famous.
Sherry is also made in Spain, a good reason to get merry in Jerez where
it originates.
Madrid
Spain is home to some world
renowned cities if the busy hustle bustle experience is your thing. Capital
city Madrid is great from shopping, fine dining, or a night on the tiles.
Any football fans will want to visit Real Madrid's or Barcelona's grounds
and perhaps even watch them play at home.
Festivals are common place
throughout the whole of Spain, but bull-fighting, the bull-run (an event
that involves a group of people running from bulls down a street), and
the famous tomato fight, where a whole town has the worlds biggest food
fight with tons of tomatoes.
Whatever the occasion, Spain
has something that will surprise and delight.
