I just got a new camera, Canon EOS 1100D with standard EFS18-55mm, and I brought it to Spain. These are some of my pictures from this fantastic trip in April 2012.
I was invited to Ribera del Duero to participate in the yearly classification of the wines. Thank you for the invitation Ribera.
More notes on a fantastic dinner at Pesquera Hotel is here, and notes from the tasting af Dominio de Pingus is here

Strange. I have almost exactly the same photo from the closed down terrace taken a few years ago. 🙂
Nice – it is a “Kodak moment” as they said in the old days.
