Cabrales Cheese stored in caves


We have taken some trips the last couple of days.  Yesterday we went to Cudillero, a beautiful village on the sea with really nice views of the Cantabrian coast.  Today, I set out early to try to hit a few spots in eastern Asturias.  Two lakes in the Picos de Europa park, Covadonga (an important religious site as well as the start of the Reconquest of Spain,) and Arenas de Cabrales to see how the famous Spanish blue cheese Cabrales is made.
