You are such a tease!
I want to go back SOOO bad!
Ok, another quick story....
When I went and traveled Spain, we were visiting the Valley of the Fallen and it just so happened we were around Franco's grave. As you know, most Spaniards don't or didn't like him. One of our tour guides made mention that he would LOVE to step on Franco's grave but could get into serious trouble if he did. I told him no worries...I'm a tourist, I'll do it for you...So, I DID! They couldn't believe it! Needless to say, I didn't get caught and I was like a "hero" to them. I couldn't believe I did it either! lol I know, it wasn't nice.......
