What’s this about?
This is Peter and Maureen Scargill's Spanish website. We live in Galera in Andalusia (for clarity, that is the English spelling - Mid-Spain they spell it Andalucia and pronounce it "And-a-loo-thee-a").

We've had a home in Spain for more than 14 years and it is now our permanent base though we retain a small home in the UK.

Find out more about this by reading through the blog entries, menu-accessible pages and archives if you're interested! Welcome to Peter and Maureen's Spanish website.

Summer 2025 Life in the USA

After a quiet June, mid-July Maureen and I headed to Chicago and on to Minocqua, safe in the knowledge that we have friends visiting back in Galera and looking after the kitties.

First stop Malaga for a one-night stopover then onto Chicago via Dublin. The wine (right) was at a so-called Irish bar in Malaga 🙂

The Air Lingus flight to Dublin was easy enough but I can´t say the same for the onward flight to Chicago with legroom clearly meant for short people.

Once we got to Chicago we found that while hot it was a welcome relief from the endless sweltering in Spain. A relaxing few days with my sister in law then the three of us drove up to Minocqua.

Here are a few photos, I will put the lot on a publically visible library once back home, along with some drone and phone video. Watch for updates.

For now, we have spent a lot of time on one lake or another. A great way to spend the hot summer days.

I thought I had this covered, buying a travel screen and mouse for the phone here at Wallmart Minocqua, but the keyboard is letting me down so I will keep this short for now…
