holidays in the north of Spain (Jaca - Pyrenees) and Expo Zaragoza 2008

Hi all,

Have you planned your holidays already?
Would you like something new?

Spain is more than just Benidorm and Costa del Sol
Would you like to spend few weeks in the north of Spain?Are you willing to learn Spanish at the same time?

Then Jaca (Huesca-Spain) Pyrenees is the answer

Check this out: http://jaca.costasur.com/en/index.html
This is a great place for outdoor sports, especially skiing. There are some excellent ski resorts in the region.

Over the years, Canoning, Rafting and Mountaineering have become increasingly popular too.

In winter, the main activities are skiing and snowboarding. In summer, when the landscape and climate change, other activities become available. People go trekking, climbing, cycling and canoing.

There are many holiday companies that specialize in these kinds of outdoor pursuits. You’ll find numerous activities available - everything from horse riding to Paragliding.

If you are interested my friend Geles is happy to rent a room and/or a flat. Send her an email to get more information; Prices and availability as requested. (gelesanaya@hotmail.com)

Also you can experience the biggest water festival on Earth (Zaragoza from 14th June to 14th September 2008. Spain)

22 days to go until the start of the biggest event on water and sustainable development

Against Expo Zaragoza 2008 / Website (13.6.08 08:14)
I won't recommend anyone coming to Zaragoza in order to visit this Exposition. It has nothing to do with sustainable development; it has everything to do with unscrupulous businesses.

The experience of previous universal exhibitions (and that of Zaragoza is not: it is `international', ie, a second class exposition) and the most recent Forum in Barcelona, showed that these events are ruinous to the Treasury, but very profitable for construction companies and real state speculators.

Expo Zaragoza 2008 is unsustainable in terms of ecological, economic, social, environmental, legal and cultural. The Ebro river ecosystem is being destroyed: cutting down thousand of trees, irresponsible dredgings in order to allow ships sail, cutting the bottom of the Stone Bridge medieval archs, etc.

Politicians have been lying with a straight face for years, in order to get population's support for this project. However, people is increasingly aware that they've been cheated.

I could go on and on. Please visit http://www.expo-no.es , where there is a lot of information (mostly in Spanish, but there is also some in English).
