August in Andalusia is very hot. There's no point in attempting any hyperbolic description to convey how hot it gets.

For a lot of years, Andalusia did feel like home. Image is of Galicia, destination for just one of our escapist excursions, but a picture of Cantabria, Asturias or Navarre would have done: source PXHere

I love rivers

We really should look after them better than we do, and show them the respect that they are due. All true beauty is dangerous too.

Thanks for reading and...

 Strong narrative and imagery in this fine poem takes us along on the guided tour of the eponymous castle, that's why it's today's Pick of the Day.

Please spread the word on whatever is your social medium of choice, dear ABC-ers.
