I don't know if this is the right section of the board for this, but I just wanted to share w/ you a link to the largest album of photos I have ever seen on the web about Galicia. The pictures are not that big, but are worth seeing (once you click on one picture it will enlarge but not that much). I also like that on top of the picture they mention the place the picture was taken at. Hope you like it.

Quite nice! I just ran through them all as I'm a BIG FAN of all regions in Galicia. Mmmm... Galicia... My goodness that's SUCH a beautiful region in Spain - MY FAVORITE, in fact! Whenever you combine green mountains with seaside towns and small highland villages, fantastic seafood, little non-Spanish tourism, and beautiful sunsets you have an unbeatible place. Although I understand winters are especially harsh.

Saludos, MadridMan

I’m glad you liked the pictures MadridMan. Actually, I wanted to move to Galicia some time ago since they have a repatriation program through which Gallego emigrants or their children and grandchildren receive help to move to Galicia. Basically, they lend you money to either attend school or open a small business in Galicia. However, once I realized how cold and rainy Galicia gets I knew that was not going to work for my wife. So I forgot about moving there, but I am still curious about Galicia. It seems that you like it a lot, especially their scenery and food.

Muchisimas gracias, Jbach. I am 1/2 Gallega and 1/2 Asturiana, but when asked I always respond Gallega because that is where my heart truly belongs! It is the loveliest region in Spain.

Booklady, you are welcome. The more photos I see from Galicia the more I want to go there. I really like La Coruña.

I found more pictures from La Coruña at Blog de Adolfo . I hope you like them.

What wonderful pictures. La Coruña is the best. It's beautiful, and the people are the nicest in the world. Thanks for the reminder.
