It is lazy Sunday afternoon and we decided to camp for the night at Medilllen Yes you remember the old Cocaine cartel in South America was referred as the Medilllen cartel with the late Pablo Escobar as leader
The town is a small prosperous agricultural town with lots of water from River Rio and canals leading from dams higher up
This is classical success story of old Franco who anchored his economical policy on agriculture and his dream that Spain will not evolve into a industrial waste land as the Northern neighbors become with agitating unions
Farmers here as all over the world complains as well but they harvest good crops of Rice, Maize, olive oil, and fruit, ( figs and peaches)
Houses are big and impressive
After traveling through the dry climate and white house villages it is refreshing to see this progress
We will investigate tomorrow a little further on what the link was if any with South America
