But like any decent dream, Polly&#8217;s came with its own reality: of thighs screaming with pain and goats trying to derail her, of strange local delicacies and overzealous suitors. In fact, like any great traveler, Polly had bitten off more than she could chew&#8211;and would delight in every last taste of it.<br><br>Exploring the country that gave the world flamenco, chocolate, sherry, Franco, and Picasso, Polly takes us from the towering Pyrenees to the vineyards of Jerez de la Frontera, spinning tales of conquistadors and kings, vibrant history and mouthwatering cuisine. In the end, this hilarious, irreverent, always engaging memoir of a journey on two wheels unveils a lot about one modern woman, even more about an utterly fascinating nation, and countless reasons why it&#8217;s better when you do it on a bike. 1412376 2003 It's Not About the Tapas: A Spanish Adventure on Two Wheels total:147|5:14|4:41|3:63|2:26|1:3| 147 478 217 39 2 2 false false Tue Feb 05 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Jan 07 08:04:41 -0800 2008 Tue Feb 05 10:37:16 -0800 2008 more...]]> 3 1 false false Sat Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Wed Jan 02 09:23:06 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 02 09:28:55 -0800 2008 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Jan 22 12:33:21 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 22 13:28:00 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Sat Sep 12 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 08 20:52:26 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 13:32:05 -0700 2009 more...]]> 2 1 false false Fri Nov 09 12:59:16 -0800 2007 Thu Oct 18 06:45:48 -0700 2007 Thu Nov 08 08:28:52 -0800 2007 2 0 false false Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon May 18 16:40:45 -0700 2009 Mon May 18 17:05:23 -0700 2009 more...]]> 1 0 false false Fri Feb 20 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 19 05:42:26 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 20 20:53:39 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Wed Nov 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sun Sep 06 14:50:24 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 06 14:50:24 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Oct 18 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Nov 10 04:33:20 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 10 04:35:10 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Mon Aug 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 13:31:57 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 12 10:25:53 -0700 2009
