I love this little roundabout in Spain. It's in a small village known as Benaojan about 15minutes drive from Ronda and while the fountain is often working, the other day was the first time I had my camera handy to get this great shot of the water gurgling away.

Now in case you're wondering, Spanish roundabouts aren't all surrounded by flowers, although there is an effort being made here to beautify parts of the villages, but in this case the powerlines still haven't been put underground and that's a slow process in these parts.

The hills you see in the background are limestone mountains filled with caves, in fact the one on the right has a cave entrance behind it that forms an underground river which resurfaces about 4 kilometers later at a cave entrance known as Cueva del Gato.

The bar to the left of the roundabout is the local everything, yes its a bar, and at night the locals go there for a beer, but during the day it also seems to be the village hangout spot and a cup of coffee is not impossible. One of the most amusing things that happens in small Spanish villages also happens every day in Benaojan, and the fountain is the focal point.

Years ago, way back in Franco's day and before, jobs weren't guaranteed and the local employers or foremen would turn up in the village and select the men they wanted for that day who would all hang around here chatting and smoking cigarettes. Well those days are gone but the old men still congregate every day right there.
