After driving here I’m quite certain you could handle driving anywhere as buses, cars, vans, motorbikes and bicycles jostle …
Anyone for snails or should I say escargot? A man selling snails wasn’t doing much business when we walked by in El Puerto de Santa Maria in Spain last March. I wasn’t going to sample any of his produce, have you tried snails? What do they taste of? There’s a really interesting page on escargot …
