In regards to Bill in NYC's post:

I can understand where you are coming from. NYC is this great mixture of cultures and things to do. There is no where else like it in the world.

You hit the nail on the head when you said that Spain is about the people. The Spaniards are what makes the country so much fun to visit.

For example, there is an island (it shall remain nameless) that I lived on for two years. It was absolute paradise. The people on the other hand were a different story. Postcards of the island look wonderful. The people made it almost unbearable. I do not even have any desire to go back because of the attitude of the inhabitants.

Long story short, the people are what make Spain such a great place.
