If all your friends jumped off a cliff…never mind.

El Pantano

Last Friday we went on a kayaking adventure with friends. Being on the water brings back a flood of Minnesota memories. I felt like I was 13 again on White Sand Lake.

Let me introduce you to our valley

Various friends introduced us to our valley throughout our first year in Spain. We were invited, encouraged to visit, and physically taken to villages and sites around our amazing valley, El Bierzo. This photo book includes photos from 25 of those villages and sites.

Let me introduce you to our valley…

Vacation

Posted on March 14, 2017 by Seth Grotzke

We just got back from a trip. It was our 10 Year Anniversary/Tanzen Birthday/One Year in Spain Celebration. When we asked our Spanish tutor where she would go on vacation, her immediate response was “Lanzarote!”. So that is where we went. Lanzarote is an island in the Canary Islands, a territory of Spain, and easy access from our part of the world.

The island is basically a string of volcanos – inactive (I think?!) and makes you wonder if you landed on Mars. We had a great time visiting the different sites and spending time talking about our past 10 years (of marriage), 4 years (of Tanzen), and 1 year (in Spain).

Here are some pictures from our trip. The rest you can see here.

The strangest parade…

Posted on March 3, 2017 by Seth Grotzke

Crystal was all excited to go see a family parade on Saturday, but things did not end up as planned. Three different sites had different times and places, and finally we ended up just seeing this one.

I really have no words to describe it. Here is a newspaper article about it with more pictures.
