Spain by way of Mexico

His name is Isaac and he lives in a town in southwest Spain, I think. He told me the name but, shame on me, I forgot. I met him at Hostel Alcatraz in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Another of my dorm mates at that hostel was a young lady from England named Aprylle. We talked about my magnets and 'the project' one evening and I meant to give her a magnet. Somehow we missed each other, me headed for Guanajuato and she for Guadalajara.

Who should I meet at the hostel in Guanajuato, but Isaac.  In talking to him, he commented that he was going to Guadalajara and would be staying at the same hostel Aprylle was in. So I sent him with a magnet for her and gave him one to keep himself. Since he's Spanish, I gave him a frog and asked him why they are good luck. He told me it is rare to find a frog in Spain.

For those of you who travel, his big tip is: In Spain, go to Grenada. I'll second that.
