This will be the first of 2-3 posts of photos from our vacation in Spain. My strategy is to mostly photo- dump without a lot of commentary, or else this could take awhile.

So he wanted to go somewhere relatively warm. He wanted to take a road trip rather than fly. He wanted to drive somewhere - for it to actually feel far, far away. He thought Spain sounded nice. When he got there, he wanted to drink a beer and stare at the ocean. And that's about it.
When you're vacation goals are very basic, it's very easy to meet them!
With one weekend off church and a day spent driving each way, we had 5 days to spend in Spain over the Easter holidays. Through the magic of airbnb, we booked a very inexpensive apartment (even by airbnb standards) overlooking the ocean in a town we'd never heard of, and then proceeded to worry we'd been tricked or missed the fine print.
Thankfully, all was as advertised!
We spent most of our time at the beach in town or hiking along the coast to other beaches making up the Costa Brava. Some of the neighboring countries had already finished their Easter breaks, so it wasn't terribly overcrowded.
On with the photos.

I have listed some of the names of the beaches above the photos, many within a short walk (a few km) along the cost north or south of the town of Palamos. You should be able to find them on google maps. Some of the smaller beaches between aren't named on google maps.
