Watery Wednesday: Spanish splashing

This is one of my favorite close-ups of a fountain. My husband, Richard Schear, took this photo when he went on a tour to Seville, Spain, a tour I chose to forego because I wasn't prepared for the time and energy it took. Instead, I chose a shorter tour in Cadiz, where our Royal Caribbean cruise ship had docked.
My much healthier husband enjoyed Seville very much. It was December, 2008, and our cruise left from Barcelona to visit other ports in Spain as well as Madeira, and Lisbon, Portugal, Casablanca, and the Canary Islands.

    Great watery picture. Last Spring we spent the day in Cadiz too! I thought it was a love place and adored all the winding streets and alleys. Seville was just too far away.
