We went to Valladolid the 2 of November. First we went to the main square of Valladolid and we had free time, next we saw a concert of contemporanean music,that I didn´t like too much. Then we had free time to ate. Finally we went to Peñafiel a village of Valladolid and saw the castle and wine museum.

DESCRIBING A LANDSCAPE
PYRENEES
LOCATION
Is a range of mountains in southwest Europe that forms a natural border between France and Spain.
CLIMATE
The amount of precipitation the range receives, including rain and snow, is much greater in the western than in the eastern Pyrenees because of the moist air that blows in from the Atlantic Ocean over the Bay of Biscay. After dropping its moisture over the western and central Pyrenees, the air is left dry over the eastern Pyrenees. The winter average temperature is -2 °C. There are some glaciers in the western and snowy central Pyrenees.
VEGETATION
The flora of the Pyrenees is overwhelming. Depending on the season, there is always much to see. The rocky area there is here a great variety of rock plants. Lilies, gentians, irises, orchids and many, many other flowers and plants.
FAUNA
Special Pyrenees residents that live here are the bearded vulture, the Pyrenean desman, the genet and the brown bear. Furthermore, the wooded areas are home to deer, wild boars, foxes, badgers and smaller mammals. In and around the water one can discover the Pyrenean brook salamander, rainbow trout and the dipper. Higher in the mountains one reaches the habitat of griffon vultures, bearded vultures, chamois, ibex and marmots. There are many species of lizards, newts, dragonflies, beetles and butterflies.
