Music: Rien de Rien -Edith Piaff, Funiculi Funicula -Luciano Pavarotti, Bizet's Carmen -Waldo de los Rios.             Dad loved all these great pieces of music. Ten years ago, we embarked on a journey that would change our lives and our relationship. My father and I bonded man to man for the first time rather than as father and son. Three weeks on the road in a beat-up truck with incredible scenery around every curve, the midnight sun that never went down... Crossing the Arctic Circle on the Dempster Highway was the high point of the trip for me, and ever since that trip both me and my father remembered it as the trip of a lifetime, and the best trip that either of us had ever been on. In later years, I asked him if he'd like to do it again, and his enthusiasm seemed to be declining every time I brought it up. I think it was 2003 when I asked again. He said he'd need to fly into Whitehorse because he didn't want to drive all the way through BC again. By last year he just wasn't into it at all anymore. This year, and on this day I cherish the memories... I will take that trip again someday, but it just won't be the same with dear ol' DAd...Yukon

GTR-DVD-1176 - Albaicín is one of the most picturesque areas in Granada and is famous for both its history as well as its numerous beautifully decorated buildings. In the 7th century B.C., first the Iberians and then the Romans and Visigoths settled here in the spacious hill area above the River Darro. However, it was only under the rule of the Moors, when Granada became an independent Islamic kingdom, that the region began to flourish. Even today the splendour of the former Islamic monarchy is highlighted by the world famous and legendary Alhambra Palace. Due to a peace treaty with the Christians'military leaders, Mohammed The First had the impressive castle built. Over the years the Alhambra was extended and its architecture was embellished by its royal inhabitants until the town finally fell to the Catholic Kings. In Albaicín the glorious atmosphere of old Granada can still be felt amid its buildings, its lanes and even in the air. For the architectural legacy of the Moors continues to enchant all those who experience it, right up to the present day.

7DY-DVD-138 - Andalusia in southern Spain is a fantasy land situated between Europe and Africa.  In  Algarrobo, a white village close to the coast, time seems to have stood still.  A place of both inspiration and contemplation.  Since Phoenician times the earlier 'Malaca' was a busy trading port that was defended by the Castillo De Gibralforo.  The  Cathedral, also known as 'La Manquita', symbolises a catholic victory on the former site of a mosque.  On the edge of the city centre is the Moorish fortress of Alcazaba that was once a fortified residence on the hills of Castillo.  The second largest city in Andalusia also became known as the birthplace of its famous son, world famous artist Pablo Ruiz Picasso.  Since the 1950's the modern coastal resort of Torremolinos has attracted mass tourism  with a numerous variety of huge hotel skyscrapers, bars and restaurants.  In the hilly inland area of the Costa Del Sol is the pretty white mountain village of  Mijas.  A small hilltop bullfight arena shines bright white along with the houses ofthe surrounding area.  Marbella, the prima donna of the Costa Del Sol, serves as a rendezvous for the stars of stage and screen and a leisure resort for the international jet set.  Another short excursion into the mountains near the coast leads to Casares, a sleepy mountain village crowned by the ruins of a Moorish Castle.  During the Roman Carthaginian Wars Cadiz played an important role as a trading centre.  After the Moors, came the Normans and in 1262, the city fell into the hands of the Christian king, Alfonso.  Dreamy harbour towns, cultural metropolises with a Moorish past, Christian buildings and white villages.  Beauty in the Garden Of Eden -- that's Andalusia!
