AC Cuenca

Vale, ya tenemos todas los visados!!!! He mirado billetes a Santiago y nos cuesta 120 EUR cada una solo ida....Entonces he pensado en el tema de alquilar un coche visto lo visto....eso nos daria un poco mas de flexibilidad en cuanto a los horarios y no nos sald'ia mucho mas caro....Esta noche, reunion de pastores..Eso cambiaria la ruta, pero que mas da!!!! Lo malo es que condenaria a mi hermana a conducir todo el rato.. :S vamos a ver....

... et voir le Protugal et l'Espagne (et l'Europe en general) pendant que l'on peut marcher et monter des marches. Lorsqu'on ne le peut plus, on pourra aller aux Etats-Unis! Je ne sais pas comment les pauvres vieux ici font pour survivre dans ces rues inegales, ces marches sans arret, ces collines de la mort qui n'en finissent plus et ces rues si etroites qu'une voiture et un pieton ne peuvent cohabiter!!!

... Las casas colgadas y los llamados rascacielos (casas construídas en las rocas con hasta once plantas) son muy picturescos. Cuenca debe ser un lugar ideal para retirarse por un par de días del ajetreo de otras ciudades vecinas. Sin embargo, nos quedamos un poco decepcionados. La zona nueva es indescriptiblemente anodina y la antigua parece tener vida sólo en temporada alta ,pues había únicamente una cafeter ...

... en montagne composé de rochers qui, avec l'errosion, ont pris des formes particuliéres. On y reste une heure á faire cette belle ballade, c'etait vraiment tres beau. Redescente de la montagne pour retour en ville avant d'aller, en debut d'apres midi, grimper une colinne qu'on avait vue sur la route de ce matin. Belle balade le long de rochers, en hauteur, avec une super vue sur un paysage que vous verrez sur les ...

... the 15 minute wak up the hill to town, we sought refuge in a bar to have a spot of lunch. For some reason, Virg has managed to travel entirely around the world without adding "Face like a slapped a**e" to her collection of useful, but not altogether nice, stock English phrases. This was all about to change as we looked into cold, desperate eyes of a waitress, whose day we´d clearly ruined by having ...

... une bonne sieste de 30mn avant de continuer. Nouvel arrèt pour manger. J'etais encore brouillé de l'estomac que je n'ai pas pu finir le sandwich ! Non mais franchement, ètre malade en vacances !!! On a finalement réussi á finir la route pour arriver á la ville de Cuenca. J'etais tellement fatigué qu'on a pris le 1er hotel qui se presentait. C'est un hotel 3 etoiles !!! Mais les pris étaient trés résonnables alors parfait ! J'ai fait immediatement une ...

... situation. Just after we bought our train tickets these two police officers asked us for our passports then they took our passports and called HQ. I have no idea what was said but apparently we passed. This is also where my camera stopped working. Well it works but I just don't have any more room left on my card. **** camera.

... we cleaned the hostel out of honeycakes (I snuck a few for the road) and headed out. We had to stop for gas, which was a whopping 40 euros. Ouch. In order to make the most of our new tank of gas, Chantal waited until we were several miles on the road before realizing she had left her phone at the hostel. So another detour later, we chugged along to Cuenca. It was a very scenic route through the mountains. It was ...

... beer in my glass, even though the other half is gone. But this oversleep was not really my fault. It was because of the Spanish TV that shows some ... shameless programs after the midnight. The programme I watched first was so exxxciting, you cannot find any equivalent in Eastern Asia. I actually read an article that in China, you can get executed by watching something even less explicit (or "sensored", to be direct), that can only be ...

... budget hotels with private rooms). The first hotel had a single room for 27 euro, but of course I had to walk around to compare the prices. Anyhow, it was great to know that my spanish was good enough to ask the prices around. Thanks for Hector my Peruvian flatmate. The second hostal was peculiar. It did not have a entrance or reception desk, but only a sign outside of an apartmnent building ...
