...A is for Alcampo!
As promised, I'm beginning the "ABC's of living in Spain" where I will be writing about the things that either are so completely Spanish that I feel you all should know about them, or things that strike me as funny, etc. etc. The whole point of this series is to give you a little bit more of a glimpse into our life here in España. So without further ado...
Literally meaning, "to the field", Alcampo is the grocery store where we like to do most of our shopping. It's situated in the next town over in Colmenar Viejo, about a 6 minute drive away. This is definitely a modern grocery store, which sells everything from produce to washing machines. We like their store brand and often find it to be the cheapest around. Produce is also quite cheap which we particularly enjoy. One thing that you won't find in your average Canadian grocery stores are the aisles devoted to jamon legs (See below)

I'm so excited...visiting grocery stores in foreign lands is one of my favourite aspects of traveling...this is likely why we are friends, right?
