First Time to Spain? 10 Travel Tips to Plan Your Trip.
After my recent trip to Spain, many of you have written to me to ask questions like what's the best time to visit the country, and whether it's really possible for a vegetarian to survive without eating supermarket food. I've written travel tips for a first trip to Europe before, but I thought it would be a good idea to dig specifically into Spain this time. So here goes, ten travel tips to make your
life travel planning to Spain simpler:
1. What's the best time to go to Spain?
I skipped Spain during my first trip to Europe, assuming it will be unbearably hot in the land of sun, sea and sand in the months of May and June. My first impressions of Spain quickly changed that perception; the south of Spain indeed gets hot in the summer, but the more mountainous terrain in the north of the country remains pleasant, with the occasional rain. Winter starts in early November, and although Spain remains warmer than other countries in western Europe, it becomes cold enough to need boots and a good overcoat, even in the south of Spain, where rain is hardly uncommon in early winter.
So, according to me, the best time to travel to the south of Spain (Almeria, Andulusia, Jaen, Granada, Huelva), is just after the summer, from September to early November. This is also when the summer crowds have left, and autumn has painted the countryside in magical colors. On the other hand, the best time to visit the north of Spain (Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturia, Galicia) is in the summer months, between May and July.
2. How to get a Schengen visa for Spain?
Applying for a Schengen visa is never fun, certainly not when you own an Indian passport. If Spain is your first (or only) country of arrival in Europe, you need to apply early for a visa, which can take up to fifteen working days to be issued. Bear in mind that besides public holidays in India, the Spain embassy is also shut for public holidays in Spain.
In Delhi, it is easier to apply for a Schengen visa at VFS (Visa Forwarding Service), located in Nehru Place. Carefully put together the required documents for a Schengen Visa for Indians as mentioned on the VFS website, and supplement them with a covering letter and your resume, to show that you're legitimately interesting in travelling to Spain. Applying for the visa costs INR 5,400. In Bombay, you can apply directly at the Embassy of Spain.
3. What to pack for Spain?
I answered this in the context of travelling in early winter, among one of the readers' questions in November's Ask Me Anything, but in a more general sense, the answer largely depends on when and which part of Spain you're going to. If you intend to travel to the south of Spain in summer, you better stock up on summer wear and lots of sunblock, whereas if you're headed north, carrying warm clothes and a good umbrella is essential; the north, especially Asturias, is prone to rainfall round the year.
Depending on whether or not you're used to Europe's chill, I would recommend stocking for winter in Spain as you would for any other European country. It is warmer than say France or Italy in the winter, but way colder than winter in Delhi, as I would find out the hard way. Checking the weather forecast on your travel dates is a good place to start.
4. Do they speak English in Spain?
Among my first impressions of Spain, I mentioned how not being able to get by speaking English in Spain was a myth. Truth is, I spent that week travelling on a press trip with Spain Tourism, which means we got around in chartered buses and taxis, stayed in non-budget hotels, and had English-speaking guides accompany us at most times. The moment I stepped out of that bubble and into the countryside of Spain, English was neither spoken, nor understood. It is almost impossible to check in, ask for room service, understand directions or timings, negotiate, and order vegetarian food, without some basic knowledge of Spanish, the primary language spoken in Spain. In Barcelona and the rest of Catalonia, Catalan is more commonly spoken, but Spanish is universally understood throughout the country.
Unlike France, people in Spain don't tend to judge you if you don't speak Spanish, but for practical reasons and especially if you want to interact with the local people, a crash course before your trip is highly recommended! (I intend together to put a list of the most helpful Spanish travel phrases and share them here soon).
5. Is Spain expensive?
Having travelled in other countries in western Europe, like Italy, Germany, France, Austria and Netherlands, I thought Spain was as expensive as an average European country. A meal at a small cafe will cost you an average of 4-6 Euros per person, whereas eating out in a decent restaurant could range from 20-25 Euros per person. Tapas bars are relatively cheap, especially in Andalusia, where the concept of tapas first originated, and it is easy to score free tapas with a drink or during happy hours. Public transport in Spain is cheaper than that in France, and a 2-3 hour bus journey on the southern countryside will cost only 5-6 Euros (it varies in different parts of the south though). Accommodation costs largely depend on what kind of a place you stay in; we found good deals for lovely boutique hotels at 45-55 Euros a night for a double.
On average, a budget of 100 Euros for two people per day is a very comfortable estimate, including staying at nice budget hotels, eating and drinking at local cafes or tapas bars, getting around with public transport, and indulging in the occasional fancy meal or Flamenco performance.
6. How is the food and wine in Spain?
Falling in love with the wine countryside of Spain was easy. I had the chance to sample wines and sherries on family-run vineyards in Ibiza, small wineries in Andalusia, and in the wine country of Tarragona, where wine-making is indeed a way of life. Check out Wine Tours Spain to know your options and plan a wine-tasting trip.
I can't help quoting Lonely Planet's Spain guide, which notoriously states that a vegetarian travelling in Spain is advised to carry a small stash of vitamins and a big sense of humor! I have to admit that Spain can be tough as a vegetarian, but having survived (and often been culinarily delighted) for a month in the country, it is certainly not impossible! The main challenge in Spain is that rice or wheat are not part of the staple diet, atleast on the southern countryside, and rice is considered a Sunday treat in most countryside towns. The locals literally eat meat or ham for every meal; even at breakfast, among cheese and butter spreads, spreads with atun (tuna) and jamon (ham) often show up.
During the first week of my trip, I could indulge in higher end restaurants, courtesy Spain Tourism, and was delighted to have customized vegetarian Spanish meals whipped for me. I would highly recommend indulging in atleast one authentically Spanish meal at a nice restaurant, even if it means a slight dent in your wallet.
In bigger cities like Barcelona, Cordoba and Seville, international cuisines like Italian and Mexican, and regular sandwich shops are easy to find, which serve up a handful of vegetarian dishes. In smaller towns and villages however, you are at the mercy of local joints that pretty much offer potatoes, tomatoes and eggs in the name of vegetarian food! In my month-long trip, I probably ate eggs and potatoes in all possible shapes and forms, and occasionally got lucky in finding a pizza joint at a bus station or in a small town. It is essential to know the names of the ingredients to be able to order vegetarian food, and even more essential to specify that you don't want any form of meat, fish and especially ham in your food. I learnt the latter the hard way!
7. Do you need a Eurail Pass for Spain?
I ended up in Spain without a Eurail pass, simply because between getting my Schengen visa and tying lose ends before my almost impromptu trip, I had no time to get one. Also because the two country pass for Spain and Portugal doesn't come with the awesome youth discount. Luckily, it all worked out in my favor; I never did end up going to Portugal, and bus transportation in Spain is way cheaper than trains. That's right, I didn't end up taking a single train in my entire trip!
Every state in the south of Spain has its own state company, but the Alsa bus service connects many of the routes and has accurate timetables on its website. In many smaller villages, even the locals were unsure of what time a bus would arrive, especially on the weekend, but Alsa solves that. The buses are comfortable, arrive and depart exactly on time, are almost 50% cheaper than trains, many offer Wifi on board, and have connections pretty much everywhere in Spain.
8. Where to go in Spain?
Unlike my first Euro trip, where I hopped from one country to another in western Europe, I decided to spend my second trip to Europe entirely in Spain. I wanted to make my way slowly through the gorgeous countryside of the south, taking in the endless fields of olive and the postcard villages, practicing what little Spanish I knew, sampling what vegetarian food I could find, discovering the hidden gems of the much-treaded south, soaking in the beauty of autumn, and essentially, living like a Spaniard, complete with long lunches, longer siestas, and indulging in Flamenco music and the Spanish guitar (though the last is reduced to the gypsy quarters now). Our plans were impulsive and flexible, and our final route turned out to be: Barcelona >> Almeria (Tabernas and San Jose) >> Granada >> Jaen (Segura de la Sierra and Baeza) >> Andalusia (Cordoba and Seville) >> Huela (El Rocio). I loved all of it, though I did crave for warmer weather in Jaen!
I did end up doing a fair bit of research on the north of Spain, but dropped that plan for not being sufficiently equipped for the cold. I most wanted to see the cidar and cheese country of Asturias, but everything else I read about sounded equally appealing.
My point is, Spain is not just about Barcelona and Madrid; its countryside has so much more to offer, and it would be a pity missing out on hiking through Europe's only desert in Tabernas, living in the gypsy quarters of Granada, driving along the olive countryside of Jaen, watching a Flamenco performance in a cave in Cordoba, and seeing people get around on their horses in El Rocio. And I didn't even see half of Spain!
9. Where to stay in Spain?
Like most of western Europe, Spain has plenty of artsy, boutique and family run accommodations to choose from. A great option is that of Casas Rurales, essentially a room, a studio or a full-fledged apartment rented for short-term stay by families, typically in small towns and villages along the countryside. It gives you a chance to mingle with a local family (though most of our hosts spoke no English at all) and stay on a budget, while experiencing the comforts of a budget hotel. Booking.com, as always, was my booking engine of choice, and unlike in Turkey, booking online turned out to be much cheaper than doing it directly.
10. How to find internet or Wifi in Spain?
One of the best parts of travelling in a developed country for a digital nomad or an internet addict is the ease of finding internet connectivity. Besides ensuring that all our accommodations offered free Wifi (most hotels and casas rurales do), we found Wifi connectivity in most public buses, as well as at many bus stations and cafes.
Most phone/SIM card operators like Vodafone have a strange rule in Spain, by which they don't allow you top up your 3G/cellular data for more than 400MB! More crazy than the expense involved is the inconvenience. A local in Tarragona suggested using a Spanish operator instead, called Yoigo, which offers the standard 400MB of data, but free albiet slow cellular data for a month thereafter. And unlike the other operators, they don't cut off your internet when the 400MB is over, they only deduct it from your main balance. Barring having to decode their occasional SMS using Google translate, it worked out just perfectly for the month I was there.

Really good stuff. However a complete guide for every traveler who wish to visit Spain.December 5, 2012
Its a surprise when I read that Spain is not so crazy about rice coz their neighbours are so obsessed with it. And now when I asked a few friends of mine, they reiterate what you've said. That's really a surprise for me as to how food cultures have changed very much despite the two countries being land locked on each other from more than one side. And then to think these were part of the same peninsula, a few hundred years ago as well. Rest of the points are pretty much on expected terms and as usual, you come with a lot of information and personal insight.December 6, 2012

Loved your post and travel tips! We're trying to decide between Spain, France. and Italy for our next month-long European vacation. I have been to France (mainly Corsica) and loved it. It also helps that we speak basic Spanish and French and are not vegetarian.December 6, 2012
Just wondering what will be in store for those who do not take even eggs ! Though Spain is not on my agenda right now but the way you have presented the information by inter spreading with beautiful pics makes it worth reading.December 9, 2012

Hey Shivya,
This is an amazing post! I just stumbled upon this page while doing my research on Spain. Wonder if you can help me with some more pointers on travelling between specific cities, neighbourhoods to stay in and any other suggestions on things to do and see. I am planning a 2 week trip sometime end of June or early July. As of now I have shortlisted Barcelona, Madrid, Sevilla, Granada & Ibiza for my itinerary. However, I feel this might get too hectic and I would need to drop a place or two off this list. Would really love your suggestions on what places to do and how to do them. Oh btw I am a vegetarian too and I always have a tough time so I carry dozens of packs of maggi and some spicy snacks wherever I go :)April 30, 2013
Hey Shivya
I am in Netherlands and want to travel Spain for 8N, 9D during October. This is with my family (wify & twins – 3years old) Barcelona & Madrid are on top of my list. Now having read the blog, I was wondering to cut-short a day both @ Barcelona & Madrid and add Sevilla. Can we listen some advise from the expert? Also being a veggie, seems to be a challengeJune 30, 2013
Hi Shivya
I have more-or-less finalised trip and am going to Barcelona and Malaga only. Also if you can suggest good places in-around Malaga, that will help

Hi Shivya,
Your blog is so informative for those of us who are just venturing into the world outside of America now that our kids are less dependent on us. My family (husband & 2 kids aged 8 & 5) are planning a trip to Spain sometime towards the end of June to mid July. What parts of Spain would you recommend we cover during our 10 day trip? Anything good we should see when there that you would recommend?
Also would you advise we rent a car out there or just use local transportation?
Your suggestions are highly appreciated!

Hi Anu
I have traveled Spain with family (spouse + twins 3+ years old) for a 10D/N vacations in October. We spend 3 N/D (including arrival day @ Barcelona) and then to Andalucia region. In Barcelona, we visited Sagrada and a few other monuments. @Andalucia, our base was Torreminolis (close to Malaga airport) and then drove to Malaga, Ronda, Granada (alhambara palace)
Spain can be divided in two parts – Cities (Barcelona, Madrid) AND then south spain (beautiful sea and amazing scenic villages & palaces). So if one is a more of a city traveler then it's barcelona, madrid and if it's scenic beauty, sea and a few monuments then it's andalucia. Keep in mind, you are going in a crowded time, hence you need to buy tickets well in advance especially for Alhambara palace and other historic places.
Any other questions, drop me email at email@example.com 30, 2013
Stuttgart Cars S.L. Camping-bus hollidays in Spain and Portugal.
Here there is still little known beautiful regions to discover as well as the famous regions we already known. The green Galicia offers coasts with dream beaches and sun along the whole country. The north-west of Spain offers too skying holidays in the mountain and a wide offer of cultural attractions.
With all these options travelling in a camping-bus gives you all the flexibility and independence to explore without being dependent on places to stay at.
We invite you to explore Spain and Portugal in camping-bus.
For a taylor-made offer or any other further information please contact us and we will be pleased to advise you as best we can.April 6, 2014

Hi Shivya,
Interesting Blog and lot of interesting tips; I'm sure these will help during our visit to Spain.
We are planning to visit Spain in October, our boardroom will allow us up to two weeks to breath out side daily boredom :-) We'd like to stay in an apartment, and visit places that are interesting rather than just tourist attraction.
We would't mind little bit of adventure, cultural trail along with art culture.
We'd be really happy if you can help us with your guidance.

Hi, my name is Riddhi, I would like to visit Spain between 20-31 Dec 2014 (peak XMAS season) for my honeymoon (since we more fond of cold winters -snow specially compared to beaches). Can anyone please suggest me an itinerary or the best places to visit during XMAS ?
Your response would really help me to plan my honeymoonJune 6, 2014
Spain should be a good destination to go even in winters. I don't think you would get snow. For that, you can think about northern france (mountain ranges) or swiss; essentially alps regionJune 10, 2014

ing sprees were often preceded by journal or letter writing in which the details of the looming outburst were spelled out. Classroom avengers often verbalized their impending attack in the form of threats, boasts, assertions of intent, or warnings.
The school shooting sprees were premeditated and motivated by vengeance (McGee and DeBernardo, 1999). The shooters fantasized about revenge and retaliatory triumphs over their adversaries, and mental rehearsals of their acts of violence began well in advance of the actual attack. In fantasies, they selected victims and witnesses, time, location, means, and course of action. They planned predatory aggression that was selective, calculating, and premeditated. These acts were sophisticated and creative, unlike purely impulsive acts of suddenly erupting rage. The authors observe that all elements of the "Menninger triad" (1938) were present: (1) they wished to die (suicide), (2) they wished to kill (homicide), and (3) they wished to be killed (victim-precipitated homicide). The authors suggest that the psychiatric diagnoses of a classroom avenger are atypical depression and mixed personality disorder with paranoid, antisocial, and narcissistic features.
Since the early 1990s, researchers at the United States Secret Service have been working on ways to improve the agency's assessment of threats in order to better protect dignitaries from targeted violence. To many in the Secret Service and at the U.S. Department of Education, the problem of protecting dignitaries from violent attacks seemed similar to the problem facing those interested in preventing school rampages.
With the support of the secretary of education, the Secret Service's National Threat Assessment Center studied 37 school shooting incidents involving 41 attackers (Vossekuil et al., 2000).
The incidents examined were limited to shootings in which the attacker chose the school for a particular purpose (not simply as a site of opportunity) and that were not related either to gang or drug activity, or an interpersonal or relationship dispute that happened to occur on school grounds. For each incident, teams of researchers and investigators reviewed primary source materials, such as investigative, school, court, and mental health records. In addition, center personnel conducted interviews with 10 of the attackers.
All of the incidents were committed by boys or young men. In more than two-thirds of them, one or more students, faculty, or others at the school were killed. Firearms were the primary weapons used. In over half of the incidents, the attacker selected at least one school administrator, faculty, or staff member as a victim.

dakk is awake listening to my sick 5 year old cough
I am now 226.5! 21 and a half pounds gone! The even bestest thing is no one even thinks I weigh 200 pounds let alone as much as I do. I carry it well. SO I am even looking better, feeling better (now that my New Year Flu is over) and I can get back to Belly Dancing! It really is a great way to exercise and it is totally FUN!

Council takes dim view of "library plaza" proposal
A proposal to turn the area outside the city's library into a public gathering space looks unlikely to come to fruition.
City Council members say they are skeptical of the "library plaza" project, which calls for landscaping throughout the parking lot and other changes so that the area could host concerts, farmers markets and other community events.
Councilwoman Becky Smothers said she thinks the idea — which is based on the Ignite High Point master plan by Miami architectural firm Duany Plater-Zyberk — would make parking less convenient for library patrons because it would eliminate some of the spaces directly in front of the building.
"The library is a public facility over which much blood has been spilled over the years," said Smothers. "Parking was a priority we were not willing to sacrifice. Acquiring additional property away from the building, to me, is not in keeping with a public building to provide library services."
Led by High Point architect Peter Freeman, a committee of residents that developed the proposal recommended that the city acquire two parcels of land on North Elm Street to allow for expansion of the library parking lot.
This, along with other adjustments, would increase the total number of parking spaces for the facility from the current 178 to 226 under the plan, according to Freeman.
The Ignite High Point plan provides a blueprint for revitalizing core city areas and recommends focusing on the library because of its status as a prominent civic building in the middle of the city.
Implementing the entire project would cost an estimated $2.9 million.
So far, Councilman Jay Wagner is the only elected city official in favor of the proposal.
"It creates an opportunity to do something that is a major, transformational project," said Wagner. "People all over the city use that library. It's a focal point where people from all over the city can come. It makes that whole area a showplace for the city, and you're going to get more parking than before."
Smothers said she thinks the parking lot could use some enhancements and suggested having a landscape architect explore options. Mayor Bernita Sims said she likes the plaza concept and that the city might be able to pursue it in phases.
Others suggested that the council could pursue developing a downtown park in lieu of the library project.
"I would hate to spend $3 million to do all this and cause more congestion and issues," said Councilman Jason Ewing.
Councilwoman Judy Mendenhall said she disagrees with the concept of making the parking lot a gathering space for things like farmers markets.
"As someone who struggled long and hard to get that library where it is and lost an election over it, it's an important asset and is well-used," she said. "I don't see it as a farmers market. It has an important educational function for a lot of people. We have all ages of people who go there."

Halliburton Announces Fourth Quarter Income From Continuing Operations Of $0.93 Per Diluted Share, Excluding Restructuring Charges
Halliburton (NYSE:HAL) announced today that income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $798 million, or $0.93 per diluted share, excluding restructuring charges of $28 million, after-tax, or $0.03 per diluted share. This compares to income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2013 of $745 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, excluding restructuring charges of $38 million, after-tax, or $0.04 per diluted share.
Reported income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $770 million, or $0.90 per diluted share. Reported income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2013 was $707 million, or $0.79 per diluted share.
Halliburton's total revenue in the fourth quarter of 2013 was $7.6 billion, compared to $7.5 billion in the third quarter of 2013. Adjusted operating income was $1.2 billion and reported operating income was $1.1 billion in both the fourth and third quarters of 2013.
Halliburton's total revenue was $29.4 billion for the full year 2013, an increase of $899 million, or 3%, from 2012. Total operating income decreased $1.0 billion, or 25%, from 2012 mainly due to a substantial charge for an estimated loss contingency related to the Macondo well incident and the impact of pricing pressures in North America.Adjusted income from continuing operations for the full year 2013 was $2.8 billion, or $3.15 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted income from continuing operations for the full year 2012 of $2.8 billion, or $3.00 per diluted share. Reported income from continuing operations for the full year 2013 was $2.1 billion, or $2.33 per diluted share, compared to $2.6 billion, or $2.78 per diluted share, for the full year 2012.

"In 2013, we set revenue records in every international region and in both divisions. From an operating income perspective, we achieved record operating income in our Middle East/Asia region as well as six of our 13 product lines.

Review: Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings I Learned the Hard Way
Just as Brooklyn soul-revival impresarios Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings' live show has progressed from raw funk to Stax-style revue, their recordings have been a process of settling into the ensemble's talent. I Learned the Hard Way is easily the group's best effort yet, an album of classic songwriting and sharp musicianship belying its own complexity. From near-orchestral arrangements ("The Game Gets Old") to playful studio ease (recession anthem "Money"), this is a disc even Isaac Hayes would covet. Read more »

March 14 & 15 2009
My first guide trip for 2009. I guided 4 guys from the San Pedro Fly Club in Sierra Vista, AZ this weekend. I took 2 anglers on each day and fishing was good but we had to work for them. Riffle fishing was not as good as the 2 previous weeks. We sight-fished several off beds with eggs and scuds. In addition to wade fishing, we drifted and fished from the anchored boat. Drifting was reliable with a variety of eggs, midges and worms. As always this time of year, the fish look amazing in their spawning colors. The aggressive males protect the redd (spawning bed) and eat well if the fly is presented drag free.

5 fun folks from Australia hired me to fish Lees Ferry today. Fishing was pretty steady all day on spin and fly gear. They landed about 30 fish for the day. Bouncing pink and orange egg flies on the bottom were the ticket spin fishing and black/ silver midges took the fish on the fly rod. The biggest 3 fish went 16, 17 and 18 inches. The photos of the 2 beautiful red fish below came on consecutive drifts just below the dam. Gotta love those spawning colors!

A fun family from Wilcox, AZ spin fished the Ferry with me today. Roxy and her dad, Matt fished while mom and sister rode along. The day was forcast to be windy later, so we fished hard while the conditions weren't too bad. Starting just a few miles up from the launch, we quickly hooked up the first fish of the day. many more followed and we had a fun time reeling in the rainbows and watching the beautiful canyon roll by. And then the heavy wind arrived about noon. We found good shelter to have lunch and then attempted to fish more but the winds were too much to maintain good boat controll and we called it a day to get them on the road to Wyoming a little early.

Walt and Bob, 2 professors from San Diego fished the Ferry with me today. We had a productive day despite the forecast for rain and wind. Bob had never fly fished before so we spent some time going over the basics of casting and dead drifting while Walt fished in a shallow riffle just above us. Walt was soon on the fish with eggs and midges. After about 20 minutes of instruction, Bob was on his own and had his first fish on the fly rod landed after a short tussle. Both Walt and Bob hooked a trout while sight fishing a nearby spawning bed. Bob fought and landed a nice 17 inch male off that bed. Later we switched to spin gear and did well on 3/8 oz. Kastmasters and bouncing big egg flies on the bottom. The biggest fish of the day came on the Kastmaster spoons.

I had 2 young clients on Saturday and we had a blast catching many LM, SM, walleye and crappie. Hula grubs in smoke, watermelon and purple all took bass and walleye. The Senko crappie I caught last weekend that I thought might be a fluke was not; Derek caught 4 more crappie in the same spot on a 4" watermelon candy senko rigged wacky. Close by, Derek and Ian hit a few walleye on the hulas and many more bass on Senkos and Hulas. The wind kept us from sight fishing bedded fish efficiently. The most active fish came from 5-15 feet on drop-offs or steep talus slopes.

I had returning clients Leroy and Deb from Stansburry UT with me on May 3rd & 4th. Deb had the first fish of the trip on Sunday on a white/ chart. Terminator spinnerbait in Warm Creek. The beauty weighed in at 2lbs 13oz. but it looks bigger than that. We caught many fish in WC on Hula Grubs, weightless Senkos, spinnerbaits and chatterbaits. Later we fished Kane Wash for a while and had a fun time sight fishing smaller bass and a couple of crappie. Leroy stuck several with the fly rod on topwater spiders and mouse patterns.
Monday, we fished by Dominguez Butte and found the fish on the windward side of steeper drop-offs very receptive to Hulas in 5-20 feet. The windblown points or the lee side did not produce at all. Very specific pattern. Then we hit good ole Last Chance. After fishing along the shore with jigs and Senkos and picking up several fish, I put leroy and Deb on my crappie spot. It was on big time. We hooked at least 30 and boated about 20. 2-4" grubs and small Roadrunners accounted for the tasty fish.

Judy and Dean from Idaho hired me to take them striper fishing to celebrate Dean's birthday. For this trip, we stayed close to hame and fished Wahweap Bay. We trolled a variety of shallow diving lures in water no deeper than 20 feet. Most of the fish came from the 10-12 foot range over the tops of flooded brush. The fish are nice and fat and yielded excellent fillets. Fun couple and a great time.

Wayne and his son-in-law Jason from Tucson joined me for a day of fishing for stripers, bass and crappie. After a couple reports of hundreds of shallow and visible stripers close to Castle Rock Cut, we decided to try and find them first thing in the morning. We had 2 stripers take a jerk bait but the big school had moved on. We ended up fishing jigs and dropshot 4" worms on nearby points and caught lots of SMB. After a short stop by Dominguez butte and a few more small mouth on jigs, we found our way into Last Chance for another round with the spot that has yielded so many crappie for my clients in the past month. Well, it did not disappoint this trip. In fact, we had the best crappie bite this year. Between the 3 of us, we caught over 30 crappie, a couple hand sized bluegills and a couple decent LMB on the ultra light rods in just a couple hours. Another great trip and great guys.

Joe, a lone angler from Downey, CA fished with me on a morning half-ay trip. After, a slow start looking for stripers, we found the smallmouth very cooperative. We caught many on dropshot rigs and 5" Yamamoto Pro Senkos fished on shaky heads. Many of these fish we watched eat the bait while we fished over stair step type structure

I motored out to Kane Wash to pick up some sons and dads up from the beautiful house boat "Babarac". The first crew of 2 dads and 3 young sons got into some decent smallmouth action on Yamamoto plastics and a couple bass and a walleye on crankbaits. The second group of 2 dads and 2 sons faired just a well in similar looking structure. All the kids were 7-9 years old a had a great time fishing the scrappy smallmouth.

Bret and his 10 year old son Eli fished the river today and we had a blast. For 10 years old Eli is a pretty good fly fisherman. Bret and Eli had success on bead head midge patterns fished with a couple different techniques. The rainbows are strong and give a great fight.

My annual post-Memorial Day trip to Oak Bay to hang out with my friends on the Forbidden Canyon. After a beautiful early morning 47 mile ride up lake on glass smooth water, I arrived at their houseboat about 7AM. After a quick good morning to all we were off to fish over flooded brush with topwater and spinnerbaits in search of largemouth and smallmouth close by. No luck there, but a striper spot close by that has treated us well for a few years did produce for us. The action fishing anchovies was not super fast, but we did boat plenty of stripers to make a nice fish fry for the crew. Great seeing everyone again. I look forward to the trip again next year.

Kurt and his buddy Ray fished with both conventional and fly gear today. We spent most of the day in Navajo Canyon. We came across a couple of small "slurp boils" where the stripers gently taking larval shad off the surface. However, we could not get a fish to eat out of these boils. We did have some success fishing for smallmouth and largemouth bass in the narrow cuts that Navajo is known for.

Frank, his wife Barb and their grandson Colby fished a morning half-day in the Wahweap Bay area. We caught and released many smallmouth using dropshot rigs with 4" worms. Frank had a big walleye cut his line at the boat while I tried to land it. I guess it would have topped 5 pounds easy. I sure wish we could landed that one for a weight and photo.

I spent today guiding at Lees Ferry. Jeff and Marty from Tucson have been fishing Fees Ferry a number of years, but have never fished with cicada dry flies before. We had a blast watching the trout blast the big dries. They caught about 20 fish between them with the biggest going 16".The cicada hatch will continue for at least another month. I forgot my camera on this trip; when Marty emails his photos to me, I'll add them to the report.

It's been a productive 4 day weekend for my clients. First off, Friday and Saturday I worked on Lees Ferry fly fishing for rainbows. This time of year is nothing short than a bonanza of fat fish. The cicada hatch is in full swing and casting big flies from the drifting boat produces explosive strikes. This is every Lees Ferry guide's favorite time of year. Wade fishing using San Juan worms and Lees Ferry Scuds was excellent with the single client I had on Saturday. The average trout was about 16 inches while wading and drifting after lunch produced 15 inch fish on average. Sunday and monday, I guided Powell. Sunday, we fished for stripers and smallmouth with success. Smallmouth were taken on a variety of jigs, dropshot and crankbaits. Stripers are busting shad and topwater lures and jigging spoons worked well for stripers up to 4 pounds. I talked to a fishing buddy of mine at the ramp this morning and he told me that he had been taking walleye up to 3 pounds while trolling over submerged brush.

2 lake days and on one on Lees Ferry this weekend. Friday I guided 2 Boy Scouts and 2 adult leaders from Caliente NV Friday. We found massive boils in the mouth of Warm Creek and everyone got into the act. The Stripers went to 5 pounds and made the drag sing. We mainly fished Kastmasters and jigging spoons.
Saturday I fished the Ferry with success wading and drifting. We fished near the dam and took quality fish to 19" on San Juan worms and midges. Drifting produced fish along the banks on cicada patterns. The cicada bite should last a couple more weeks.
Sunday, I had a houseboat pick up in Padre Bay. We looked for striper boils in Warm Creek where we had such success on Friday. The fish just didn't show up for us. We looked in other spots with limited boil activity. There were several pods of stripers busting shad in the same canyon where the houseboat was anchored and we fished those stripers just before lunch but the boils were very short in duration and difficult to get the boat in position in time to make a cast. The guys did catch a few fish for dinner. 6 year old Taylor had a blast cranking in the strong stripers.

2 days at Lees Ferry this week.Fishing is still very good with 15" average rainbows and several fish 17-19". We drifted and threw cicada dries with bead head midge droppers with great success on Saturday and Sunday. We also waded for a few hours on Saturday with big fish up to 19" taking San Juan worms and midges.

Scott and his wife Svetlana from my home town of Tucson, joined me on Lees Ferry for a day of fly fishing. We started the day wading while I worked with Svetlana on her casting and presentation techniques. Both Scott and Svetlana caught fish while we waded at 8 mile bar. Scott took a nice 18 incher on a dry fly there. After a few short drifts and lunch in the shade of the bimini top, we concentrated on fishing dry/ dropper rigs from the drifting boat. Scott landed several fish on the cicada dry and a few on the dropper. It was a fun day with a fun couple.
"I cant say enough good things about the whole day. We had a great time fishing with you! I really appreciate the time and fly fishing instruction you provided to Svetlana. She had a great time, and Im sure you are aware how important that is! Spouses with good outdoor experiences means there will be more outdoor adventures in the future." -- Scott Davey, Tucson, AZ

Mike and his wife Alice from Florida joined me this afternoon for a half-day trip. They wanted nice sight seeing to go along with their fishing so we opted to run most of the length of Navajo Canyon. No striper boils were seen in Navajo, on the way in or out. Mike did have success with a white spinnerbait fished along the flooded willow trees in the back of the canyon. Alice caught a couple from the brush on 5" single tail Yamamoto grubs as well. At 5:00, we motored back to the Haystack area of Warm Creek looking for the stripers that I was catching that morning. The fish were around, but in very small pods and not boiling for more than 30 seconds at a time. Alice was the only one to bring one to the boat. Nevertheless, a good time was had by all.

A great couple, Mark and Maria from Delaware called me for a PM half-day trip today. I took them through the cut to the Haystack area of Warm Creek. We were soon finding schools of stripers in 32-57 feet of water. Some were tight to the bottom and some suspended in 30 feet. After a little coaxing with jigging spoons, the fish came alive and the 3 of us caught several stripers ranging from yearling to about 5 pounds. With about an hour before darkness fell, we heard and saw boiling stripers in nearby brush and we gave chase. We used spooks and Pop-Rs to take not only stripers but many smallmouth. There's nothing finishing a great trip with explosive topwater action. I forgot my camera on this trip but Mark is going to email me some of his photos. I'll post them as soon as I get them.

Jon and his wife who hail from MA, braved a very windy morning half-day on the Big Pond. We started behind castle Rock to get shelter from the southwest wind. Lots of good looking brush and rock structure but it only accounted for a couple small bass. We ended up trolling in another fairly sheltered area and the smallmouth were very willing to take Shad Raps and Bomber Flat-A's. we concentrated on bottom depth of about 25 feet with flooded tree tops that were roughly 10-15 below the surface. Despite the wind, we made a successful day of it.

Blain, who works in the U of Arizona Steward Observatory mirror lab came up to Lake Powell for 2 days of fly fishing. Blain fished with me several years at Lees Ferry. On this trip on Powell, we cast floating, slow sinking and fast sinking lines to fish the flies at many different depths. The most productive pattern was to find a cove with bass actively chasing shad and present the flies into the action. Topwater poppers and streamer flies presented less than 5 feet deep caught both smallmouth and largemouth around the brush holding the shad schools. Saturday morning we fished Warm Creek and took mostly smallmouth here. About 10:30 we ran up to Last Chance Bay and fished a cove where I've had good success in the fall months. While Blain fly fished exclusively, I switched back and forth between the fly rod and conventional gear. While we had many follow and a few fish caught on flies, The conventional gear worked a bit better and I brought a couple stripers up on Zara Spook topwaters as well as a few more smallmouth on dropshot plastics. Sunday, we stayed close because of a forecast threat of wind. Eventually, we ended up in Warm Creek again and caught more bass on flies and even 2 on the same crankbait. It was a pleasure to fish with Blain again.

I had the privilege to guide members of the Utah Army National Guard the past 2 days. With an approaching strong cold front due to arrive Friday, we weren't sure just how the fish were going to respond to the changing weather conditions. As luck would have it, the fish didn't get lock jaw too badly. We fished a half day on Friday and a full day on Saturday. We kept close to home and fished Warm Creek on Friday. Trolling in 25 feet was the best method this day. We boated several smaller stripers on a couple different crankbaits. Saturday started out cold with cold and rainy conditions. The plan was to run straight to Gunsight Canyon in Padre Bay after hearing a report from by buddy Ron about good striper fishing right on the bank from the previous day. After running through the Castle Rock Cut and beyond in the drizzle, I opted to make a right turn into Warm Creek where the rain was not falling. As we fished over a submerged point, the squall moved on and the way up to Gunsight was clear and sunny motoring. We ended up in the back of the canyon and saw the stripers chasing shad up on the banks occasionally. The guys hooked a few fish from the brief bank boils. It's always a rush to see the fish crashing shad and getting the chance to cast into the melee.

Lees Ferry Report
November 7, 2009
Austin, Mike and Ron all from the Phoenix area joined me on Lees Ferry for a fly fishing trip today. All three have been here before and are very good anglers. We started up at Dam Island with hopes of starting the day with some good size rainbows. The fish were generally finicky but everyone caught fish. Ron found a small spot in fast water and caught several fish on San Juan worms and Zebra midges. Later we moved to Prop Bar and caught rainbows more all over the island. The bottom riffle worked especially well. It's always a great day on the Ferry.
Lake Powell Report
October 18 , 2009
Barry a newly retired charter captain from Juno Alaska and his wife Mary Sue were in Page looking for a possible retirement home and booked me for a full day trip. After getting the couple Utah fishing licenses at the marina store, we were off uplake. We fished most of the day around the vicinity of Last Chance bay and Neanderthal Cove. We found the smallmouth and largemouth a little sparse in the brush filled pockets. We caught fish but we were left needing some faster action. After a move to broken rock in the main lake we found the action more to our liking. Many fish were taken on dropshot Yamamoto 5" Pro Senkos and 5"Swim Senkos. The best Largemouth, 3-3, took the baby bass color Swim Senko on a 1/4 oz. shakey head fished very slowly in about 8 feet of stained water. The best smallmouth, in fact the biggest smallie of the year in my boat, came trolling a white/ blue X-Rap in the Castle Rock Cut jut before we hit the dock to finish the trip - go figure. The beauty weighed in at 3 pounds and 13 ounces. It was another beautiful day on the lake with a couple real enjoyable folks.

My four month old son is teething and has bitten me three times in two days on the same breast. When pumping this morning, blood settled to the bottom of my milk. He doesn't seem to want to feed on the side that he has bitten and starts to play and bites me again. What should I do?Question:
Debbi Donovan
Debbi Donovan is a Board Certified Lactation Consultant, as well as a retired La Leche League Leader. For more than a decade, Debbi... Read more
There is a good chance that the blood in your milk is the result of trauma to your breast, from your baby's biting. Other causes can include intraductal papilloma, fibrocystic breast changes, vascular engorgement, and damage resulting from pumping. The bleeding will probably go away as quickly as it came. It is not dangerous to your baby. If it does continue or more than a couple of days, it is important to speak with your Health Care Provider, as any unusual breast discharge needs to be properly evaluated.
If your baby is constantly refusing and biting on one breast, you might want to taste a bit of your milk to see what the problem is. Breastmilk is normally very sweet. If it has a salty taste, you may have a breast infection "brewing," or your little one may not be nursing much on that side and your breast is beginning to involute, or "dry-up." Tasting your milk will give you an idea if it's the taste that's bothering him.
You might want to express a bit of milk just prior to your little one's feed. It could be the milk ejection reflex (MER), or let-down, is slower in that breast. Babies know that breast stimulation (including chomping, rubbing, squeezing) can help your milk to eject. That may be your son's way of eliciting your MER. If you get your milk flowing before bringing him to breast he may not need to resort to his own way of "helping." Wishing you a quick return to pain-free feeds!Answer:

Title: God help me....
Posted: September 13, 2011 (08:34 PM)
So I finally got a job.... A real one this time, and not one I intend to quit after two days of training.... But it required an almost immediate move to a city two-and-a-half hours from my house and one with limited, or at least difficult, public transportation between the two....
This has meant that in the last two weeks, I've had to find an apartment around the time I start (Thursday). This has resulted in limited success. Not many apartments are available right now. More like at the end of the month at best.
And the one that was available right away, and the one that was cheapest, I totally thought would work out.... Except that today I found out that some of the other tenants are unsavory characters, and since I don't particularly fancy getting raped on my walk home from the bus stop come December when it gets dark at 4:30 in the afternoon, I decided to hold off on putting money down on the place because I don't want to get stuck in a lease I don't feel safe keeping.
Soooooo I've have to go look for a slew of new apartments... and hope to God one of them will have something open... I just... really hope I can find something, though, because I really can't afford to live in a hotel for two weeks or so until I get a place...
I'm going to try to see if the local Department of Human Services office can help with that... or the local Housing Authority, but... I don't know. I'm beginning to doubt that things will come through as quickly as I'd like.... And I'm really wishing I'd had more time to find something that'd work...
But on the bright side of the near total eclipse, I at least have a job that would pay pretty good money for a starting position... so I just HAVE to make this work. =/

User: wolfqueen001
Title: Re: God help me....
Posted: September 15, 2011 (08:01 PM)
Well, I was hoping that I would be able to stay with a coworker or something until I found a place... But the one that the most immediate availability probably won't work out like I hoped because she'll be using her Para Transit** services come Monday (or very close to it), and she doubts I'd be able to piggy back off hers until I can get my own set up. And since she lives on the opposite side of the state border, the public transportation won't go to my work. Or, at the very least, it'd take forever with all the transfers I'd have to do and so I'd end up an hour or so late every day.
So instead I guess I'm going to have to live out of the hotel for a week or two. But on the bright side, I've spoken to a representative from the Department of Human Resources, and she said that their office would cover my hotel expenses for a week or two until I found a place, though I'd have to pay up front.
Still, apartment hunting has generated a few successes. I've applied to one place that may be available on the 23rd (though they said more like 27th), so that might work out. Alternatively, I've called a few others and they have some coming available soon, perhaps even now, that I hope to talk to them about. And also hope they're close to the bus stop... Since even when I do get the Para Transit thing set up for myself (assuming I'm actually eligible), I'd have to take public transportation until then.
This also means I'd have to talk to my boss about coming in a little late and then just staying over a little late, just because any public transportation I do end up taking might be cutting it close, even when catching the earliest ones out. (My shift has been set for 7:00 a.m. to 3:30p.m.)
(**For those who don' know, Para Transit is an alternative name for the sort of Dial-A-Ride services provided for by transportation organizations like Pace or the local equivalents. Although I'm not sure about the requirements for all similar services, the one here may require that I be legally blind or else have some other significant disability. Although I am visually impaired, it may not be enough to qualify, although the DHS is going to see whether it can be done for me or not anyway. Frankly, I've never used it before, but if it means getting to work on time, then I'd be wiling to do it.)

Public transportation? Yick! I only take public transport because I can't afford auto insurance.
I live in a Los Angeles suburb, and have to travel between two cities -- Lancaster and Palmdale -- in order to get to school. Problem is, it takes no less than 90 minutes to travel between them. I have to take one bus from east Lancaster to west Lancaster (which isn't so bad, because this bus only takes about ten minutes between the pivotal bus stops). The bus route I most often take from Lancaster to Palmdale is the problematic one not only because it's the most frequently populated, it's often become overcrowded.

If I work an 80-hour-week it has to be something that I find tremendously rewarding on a personal level. No typical paycheck is going to motivate me to do that because we all have only so many hours to live and I'm not willing to find myself living a life where I wake up and routinely find myself dreading the next however many hours. We're all different and there's a different job that each of us might enjoy--probably one that doesn't require 80-hour work weeks--and we all owe it to ourselves to find those jobs and work them so that we don't have to look back on our lives as "those few hours we enjoyed when we weren't sleeping or at work."

Well, I've found a place and intend to move in Saturday. It looks like a duplex and I'll be on the top floor. The people below me are a couple, so hopefully I won't have any issues with them. It's also pretty close to a variety of stores, and is only half an hour by bus from work. The rent is fairly cheap - $550 a month,with all utilities paid, accept for the optional ones like cable and internet, which I'll have to set up myself.
Because of this, I'll probably fall off the face of the internet until I get that set up. Not sure how long that'll take. Might take a few days, might take a few weeks. And, of course, I'd have to make sure I can afford it.
Anyway, I just hope everything turns out okay. It looked pretty clean, so hopefully I won't have to worry about bugs and things. If I do, though, I got the impression that that sort of thing would be taken care of as quickly as possible. As it is, I'm glad I won't have to be living out of a hotel anymore, but now I'll be managing a household, which entails significantly more responsibility than a dorm room back in college. I guess we'll just see how it goes.

The American Foundation for the Blind recognized Whirlpool brand for its appliances that help those with vision loss to maintain their independence at home.Whirlpool brand is the 14th annual recipient of the Helen Keller Achievement Award, recognizing individuals and organizations who have improved the quality of life for those who are visually impaired. The award is named for the world renowned advocate for the deaf and blind, Helen Keller.Whirlpool Vice President, Brands & Customer Care John Alexander said the company is committed to meeting changing customer needs. "Those needs include increased accessibility and ease of use for all consumers, including those with vision loss," he said.Whirlpool brand engineers incorporated tones into the newest Duet laundry system to help guide users through settings for wash and dry cycles. The Duet pair can also be placed on either 10-in. or 15.5-in. pedestals to be more accessible.For those with vision loss, it is suggested they establish an organization routine by returning items to their original location. This awareness supported the creation of Whirlpool brand's Laundry 123 products. The Whirlpool brand Vertical Laundry Tower features two oversized drawers to hold larger laundry items such as detergent bottles and pull-out supply tray to organize everything from dryer sheets to pocket change. A 10-in. retractable hanging rod on some models provides consumers a temporary place to hang or air-dry four to six items such as shirts, hosiery, and delicates. The Laundry Tower is then able to hold laundry supplies within easy reach for many.The company is also making strides with kitchen appliances by offering models with buttons on dishwasher doors that can be more easily felt by those with vision impairment.

French Services
French Probate, Estate Planning and Wills
We deal with French probates. This includes cross-border tax and estate planning as well as drafting French Wills.
We respect your arrangements with your existing lawyers and accountants, who usually have no experience in France. We will, and indeed prefer to, work closely with them if you so wish. They will have knowledge of your UK affairs and it is almost always best that they continue to deal with your matters in the UK and we assist them with the French and international aspects.
Many of our clients are other solicitors/lawyers, both in the UK and abroad who ask us to deal with the cross-border/French aspects of their clients' estates. We can act either for such solicitors/lawyers or for the estate direct.
If required we are able to travel to France to resolve any practical issues. In the past this has involved settling disputes the deceased was involved in, going through the deceased's papers searching for a will, taking possession of properties and vehicles left by the deceased. We have a hands on and practical approach to resolving matters which otherwise can become very protracted.
We offer no financial services and leave investment of probate funds repatriated from France, such as the sale proceeds of properties, to your existing advisers. The same applies to structured investments as part of your estate planning. We leave investment in products such as "assurances-vie" to your financial advisers.
We normally operate on an hourly rate. Wherever possible work is carried out at the lowest available fee earner's billing rate. Estimates for dealing with estates are provided on request.

Updated: 9:38 PM MST
The body of the person who died Wednesday in a plane crash near Yuma has been taken to Tucson to be identified.
Investigators said the body was taken to the Pima County Medical Examiner's office because the plane's registration has a Tucson address.
Deputies say they got a report of a downed aircraft at about 9:07 a.m. Wednesday.
The air craft was located by Border Patrol agents on the Barry M. Goldwater Bombing Range, west of the Mohawk Mountain, and approximately 10 to 15 miles south of Interstate 8.
Initial information indicates the airplane is a civilian single engine passenger plane, and not a military air craft. The National Transportation Safety Board is heading to Yuma to investigate the crash.
The identity of the one occupant in the plane is being withheld until family members are notified.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
They said the the plane has been taken to Phoenix for investigating, and it may take six months to a year to figure the cause.

70pc of Afghan urban centres unplanned (Video)By Ataullah Khpelwak Nov 28, 2011 - 10:35
KABUL, Nov 28, 2011: More than 70 percent of urban centres across Afghanistan are unplanned due to the government's failure to provide the required civic amenities, officials said on Sunday.
"The government has no capacity to upgrade cities; it provides social protection to investors in return for taxes," acting Urban Development Minister Sultan Hussain Hesari told Pajhwok Afghan News.
He believed the only solution to the problem was upgrading unplanned rural areas, saying residents would pay taxes if the government improved their living conditions.
Speaking at a three-day workshop on land reforms that began in Kabul on Sunday, Hesari asked participants and the authorities concerned to find a workable solution to the problem of unplanned urbanisation.

Our favorite thing from the Bikini Ready line is their Energy Gummies. The candy-like supplements boost your metabolism, and increase energy. They come in a bottle as well as individual packs — they are perfect to throw in your beach bag for a weekend away!
The packaging is super cute, fun, and colorful to boot — the line will have you looking and feeling like Kim in no-time!
Professional surfer Anastasia Ashley loves the line as well. She tells HollywoodLife.com: "I use Bikini Ready because it's my job to be in a bikini. Bikini Ready helps me best the best I can be all year long."
Kim Kardashian's Workout Plan — Get Toned Abs
In addition to your diet, you've gotta get your fitness on to get a rockin' body like Kim.
Kim loves to work out at Barry's Bootcamp. Joey Gonzalez, celebrity trainer, COO & Partner at Barry's Bootcamp, tells HollywoodLife.com:
"A way to hone in on Kim's abs is to utilize heavy weights — there's no need to be afraid of them! They bring your heart rate up more quickly than doing a bunch of reps with lighter weights, thus burning more calories and helping to get rid of those last few pounds around your middle. Try laying on the ground or on a workout bench and do all of your crunches with a heavy weight (10-15 pounds) in your hands, resting just above your chest."
Will you try the Bikini Ready Energy Gummies, HollywoodLifers?
