SOJOURN™
A trip worth taking.

Mediterranean beaches to the snow-capped Pyrenees.  Sangria in the sun to romantic nights in Sevilla. Valencia’s orange groves to Pamplona’s running of the bulls.  Don Quixote's windmills in La Mancha to the museums of Madrid.  Colorful fiestas to passionate flamenco.  Sojourn™ 2009 will transport you to a treasure chest of unforgettable scenery, history and romance ­ in the fourth annual international celebration of wine, cuisine and culture ­ destination Spain.
