We have olives and almonds here in Southern Spain and we harvest the olives late December through to March. Any time now the first almond blossom will appear and by mid-January the whole hillside will be pink and white with blooms.Jenny Twisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15716569675973035423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4663983310180953938.post-77308204751804194012011-12-15T15:46:23.536+00:002011-12-15T15:46:23.536+00:00Thanks to everyone who came by to share memories -...Thanks to everyone who came by to share memories - and wishes!

The last time was to Sorrento - and I've used my memories of the amazing old town to create the scene in Reaching for the Stars where Chef Finn McDuff goes to confront his Italian wife! An excellent 'Wish I Was Here...' location, Jane and thank you for your support.<br />Love, Janice xxJanicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01831786754054878605noreply@blogger.com
