Lanjaron, Spain

There is Groupon in España, which gave us a deal on a couple nights in Lanjaron. A town on the southern slopes of Spain's Sierra Nevada. The World Health Organizations lists it as one of the healthiest places to live with the longest living inhabitants. Lanjaron produces popular mountain fresh bottled water which is said to have healing qualities. This trip came right after our 3-day madness in Cadiz, Tangier, and Gibraltar and all we were wanting was rest. It was a great place to do just that. David and I enjoyed some wonderful patadas asadas (baked potatoes with everything including tuna and beets) our first night from an outdoor vender as well as a long run in preparation for the Madrid maratón. And Yes, we re-filled 30 liters of water bottles at the local fountain for extra health.
