yes the writing on the building gave it away, though I have been in Valencia it was 87 so a while ago.
Knew I should have got rid of that text!

I thinks it’s the wilderness lodge. At least from my googling. So you win. I was only thinking about their animal park, but no name came to me.

I went with Port Canaveral because he was talking about baseball, and it's a long way from Key West to anywhere they play pro baseball, but you could be right.

Carol - you are correct
Casa de las Conchas (House of Shells) was built around 1500.
The builder was a Knight in Order of Santiago de Compostela
The shells are symbols of the Order - There are 300+ on the building.
He was also a professor at the University of Salamanca, which is the third oldest in the world.
Also where I attend a summer program in 1972 that changed my life.
If you are bored here is a rewind our blog returning to city 40+ years later
Por Fin Volvemos I am going to have to stop using blog pics....
You are up Carol!

Sorry for the delay, guys. We had a huge power surge here yesterday. Knocked out the a/c, telephone and internet, blew three battery backups, a bunch of lightbulbs AND my KEURIG!!
Still assessing what other damage, although thankfully, got a/c back. Anyway, I will be offline most of the day. So I will close this one.
Tom, you're up, go ahead and start a new thread and maybe the next one you win, you can let me post the pic. Or not!!
