The wedding took place at the Iglesia de San Jorge de la Caridad - a church built in the 17th century and containing works by the leading Spanish artists of that time (including Bartholome Murillo, Valdes Leal, and Simon Rolden). A hospital established at the same time by Miguel de Manara cared for the poor.

Happy couple leaving the church.
Our friends, Susan and Dan - happy parents of the groom.
We were bused to an olive orchard and farm where we were greeted by dancers, singers, and musicians. The grounds and buildings formed a beautiful backdrop for the wedding celebration.
After wonderful tapas (love that Iberian ham and manchego cheese) and plenty of wine/champagne/sangria and cervaza, we were seated outside for a multi-course dinner and ate as the full moon rose. The entertainment, the company, and food were all superb - a wonderful memory of our travels in Spain and especially of our time in the region of Andalusia. It was wonderful to be able to celebrate the marriage of Conrad and Meagan not only with our good friends of many years, but having had the opportunity over these days of celebrations to connect with people from many different parts of the world. We hope to see many of them again.
