We took some time to appreciate our town of Oto and neighboring Broto. We are totally charmed by this area that we really had been only vaguely aware of, if that, a few months ago.




We took a different path from Oto to Broto and discovered some new views.




Favorite activity. At some point on these travels we’ll have less beautiful weather.



More sights of Broto/Oto. It was a holiday weekend for Spain’s national day of October 12, Día de la Hispanidad. Which doesn’t just happen to coincide with Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples’ Day/Día de la Raza. The town was full of visitors, many with hiking and climbing gear.




Our apartment is so special. It is the converted stables wing of a 16th century tower building (kind of a mini-castle). Our host is a member of the family that has owned the property for over 100 years. The family wrote a book of its history.








We walked back to Broto in the evening for a lovely last dinner. We’ll miss this place!
