Monday Morning Photo - Wisteria Time in Andalucia

How quickly spring comes around after the short winter here in the Sierra Sur de Jaén. After lots of very much needed rain we´re back to the normal cloudless blue.  My garden is shooting incredbily with the moisture and now sunshine. And my beautiful wisteria flowers grandly albeit it short-lived. The big black carpenter bees love it. Each flowering season reminds me of the Botanical Gardens in Malaga and the ´tunnel´ of wisteria that I haven´t yet caught in bloom. April is a good time to plan to go if it´s on your list.  Here´s the botanical garden link La Concepción Botanical Gardens. And a sneaky peak at the wisteria. See the Monday Morning Photos list.

Andalucia has 5 out of 10 of Spain's Best Tourist Destinations

Andalucia, my home, is also home to half of Spain's top 10 destinations, according to sixth annual TripAdvisor’s Travellers’ Choice Awards 2014.

With three UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Seville was the top destination, coming in as a national third. Cordoba, Granada, Malaga and Marbella also made the top 10 list voted for by TripAdvisor during the last year.

This is the first time Marbella has made the list which was revealed in an awards ceremony in Madrid this week. Spain's top ten destinations making the list are:

Barcelona
Madrid
Seville
Granada
Corralejo
Malaga
Marbella
Calvia
Cordoba
Soller

Do you agree with this list?
If not why not and which destination would you add?
