After a long month of garden installations, work rotations, and night classes the PG class of 2010 is off to Spain! I can’t think of a better way to celebrate all of our hard work. We will be blogging while in Spain: www.pgprogram.wordpress.com-if you’d like to see all of the wonderful places we will be visiting. We are scheduled to fly into Barcelona where we will spend 3 days, then to Valencia for a night, 2 nights in Granada, a night in Malaga, and Seville, then north to Madrid to fly back to the U.S. I am really looking forward to seeing lots of Mediterranean plants in their native habitat and learning some of their gardening practices. We also have plans to see some amazing architectural works; Antoni Gaudi’s Park Guell and Sagrada Familia, The Alhambra and one of the oldest gothic cathedrals in Europe. I am comforted to know that our new garden will be in good hands while we are away and I am excited to see the progress that takes place while we are away.
