ALMERIA, HOME OF THE INDALO »
The Indalo was discovered in the Cueva de los Letreros in 1868. The almerienses firmly believe that it brings good luck and protects against the “evil eye”.

NOTRE DAME GETS A NEW LEASE OF LIFE »
Notre Dame has been in desperate need of funds for years and, at last, more than $900 million have been pledged by private individuals, firms and public institutions toward the rebuilding effort. To bring an ironically happy end to the tragedy, it may be that the fire will be what will allow France to rebuild the cathedral back to its former glory.
BARCELONA? SURE, BUT GIVE ME MADRID ANY TIME! »
