From the museum interpretation signs I got the locations of some of the local dinosaur track sites. My wife was nice to entertain me for two of these track sites.

Very cool! Thanks for sharing!


Thanks for your comments. I’m back home now and reliving the experiences as I recover from 10 hours different time zone jet lag.

Looks like a great trip.  Did you fly your plane to Spain?  : )

 

Jet lag would not be an issue if I took the Cub at 80 mph would be next month before back home! We spent several nights in Avela inside the wall in a parador.  The history in Spain is fascinating as well as the paleontology.
