... selling sea food and having bbqs on the beach. The weather is amazing cant believe that its still around the 25 degrees mark at this time of year.<br><br>We walked for a while and then worked our way back to the hotel where Ian went and lay by the pool for a little while reading his book while I had a little sleep. Its only a few days now until we come home and I am excited although I want to keep on travelling around. We got ready ...

... the ferry over to Algeciras it only took an hour and half and then we where in spain, I felt a huge weight lift as now we can relax a little. In morroco you are always on edge always watching and not trusting people that it makes you a little crazy. So we went and got our bus tickets and we waited in a little bus station cafe and had our first taste of Spanish food. Ian had some paella and I had some meatballs ...

i made it across the pond just fine, spent a few days in london with terry and his friends going out to dinner and beer tasting at a local london pub. my shift key went out on the keyboard so mostly everything will be typed in lower case; i do apologize for this. <br><br>terry and i made it from essex to london's gatwick airport by public transport, only took 1 taxi, 6 trains, and 1 bus to get us there but we made it. since i'm a bit loaded down with luggage and one piece ...

Today we had an excursion to the Caves of Nerja about an hour away on the bus. The little town on the water was cute and reminded me so much of Dubrovnik. We have free time to visit the little church and have an ice cream. Then we were off to the nearby caves which were fascinating but didn't learn much because the guide was doing double time with the tour speaking both French and English and he spoke mostly French even when he was speaking English it seemed.

... before, a typical Spanish day consists of a small breakfast, usually starting work at 9 am (I read in the paper the other day that 70% of parents bring their children to school everyday, so those parents are not making it to work by 9 am), siesta from 2-5 or 6 pm, a big lunch after 2 pm, work until 8 pm (some people only work until 2 pm like gov jobs and banks), and a small dinner after 9 pm. Fast food and to go coffees don&#8217;t really exist ...

... the Kasbah, we headed for a ¨traditional moroccan lunch¨, which was fine, with couscous, meat on skewers, and some local musicians playing music. Then it was over to the Medina, where we got a tour of a carpet shop. I thought it was good for the pictures, but not much else, so instead of staying huddled with the group in the crowded shop we headed next door to find something we would actually buy. We ended up haggling over a euro or 2 for some cheap souvineres but in the end ...

Sylvie repart pour la suisse... heureusement, je ne suis pas seule à l'auberge et passe une bonne soirée avec d'autres voyageurs!! On boit un peu, beaucoup, trop de sangria... et je décide à 6h du matin de repousser mon départ de Malage au lundi... j'ai trouvé un prof d'espagnol que je prendrais bien avec moi pour un petit bout de chemin ,-)<br>

Syvlette débarque à 8h30, je ne suis pas très fraîche après ma nuit dans l'aéroport, mais elle s'est levée à 4h du mat pour prendre l'avion alors on est un peu dans le même état!!! C'est un beau moment de retrouvailles, c'est bon qu'elle soit là, elle me fait du bien!! Nous rattrapons le temps perdu de ces 5 dernières semaines et on profite de tout se raconter en live!! Chouette ...

After breakfast and nice stroll on the beach, we head out to see the next city in the list which was Malaga. Malaga is very big compare to its size on the map :)<br>The trick is to head out to the old part of town to see the actions. Lots of architectures are dated back few years. <br>Cathedral as like the other places, is a must see in the old city. Small cobble stone alleys make it very nice and easy for walk. <br>The best ...

'...Woza!' It certainly was a big surprise and while things have calmed down a lot I still don't think it has sunk in yet for the old gel. She's off somewhere right now telling more neighbours. But as with most things I nearly cocked the whole thing up. First off I missed the bus from Malaga this morning. Traffic. The taxi driver spoke broken baby English, and as we raced through the ...
