Not surprising, I suppose - they feature strongly in parts of Spanish architecture, and as Minoru comments above, the geometric designs came over with the Moors.Janice / Dancing with Sunflowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08646734271197959581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30709600.post-57326899038054566652016-05-04T00:18:49.965-07:002016-05-04T00:18:49.965-07:00Hi!

Lisbon has always been in my dream places to visit, with Prague, Scotland, Peru, etc. Like when in Sweden, i was so fascinated with their cobble-stones on the streets. Lovely collection you have there. BTW, how do you upload in blog the photos in flickr? Photos there seem to be more refined than from the camera, i noticed with my shots.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30709600.post-7267123171067037842016-05-02T23:19:39.391-07:002016-05-02T23:19:39.391-07:00These were real something extra!
