One of the more dramatic colors in Spain is blue.  The sky seems to be the most intense shade of cerulean, cobalt blue that you can imagine.  The lapis lazuli colored tiles of the Moroccan influenced architecture are everywhere.

The intensity of such a bright blue against the red, orange and browns of an old Spanish city in Madrid are truly breathtaking.

Today, as I write this post, I am officially "Spain Sick".

Enjoy!
