I see stories in Spain now about foreign immigrant workers and the political measures taken to control them, much like in the U.S., but I hadn't known much about the domestic migrants. Thanks Micah. By the way, I'm putting you in the sidebar with the other links. I enjoy checking your blog. I wonder how that has changed over recent years?

So many had "mi pueblo" where they would go back to visit relatives and take part in yearly local festivals. It didn't seem to be such a big deal (gypsies were much more of an issue).
