Apartamentos Tartessus Sancti Petri Chiclana de la Frontera

... and then there was Shannon. She was actually the one of the first people I met here in Cordoba, and I remember I accidently called her by another name the day after I met her. That's definitely a mistake I haven't repeated!!! But lets see, a few groups of students ended up grouping together on the train since we were all headed towards the same destination. One word sums up the reason why Cadiz became such a popular destination amongst the ...

... to communicate. We were able to watch Flamingo dancing at the center in town as there was a special performance that night and the star was a young man who grew up in Cadiz and Loly and her husband have known as a child. After the show we went to lunch with Sergio and Oscar their sons. Oscar is older and speaks a little English and looks just like Jon Vaglio. Crazy. That morning both sons were at a casting call for a movie to be made with Tom ...

Today was the second and last excursion we did through Holland America. Jacqui had wanted to see the Andalusian horse show, and we could also get in a sherry tasting with it!

First off was the tour of the Gonzales Byass winery. I'm not a big fan of the normal sherries, but I love the sweet sherries. And it was cheap. I got a ...

... the way we stopped in Olvera so Mike could get his photo of the village and church tower. We arrived to Nerja very late and couldn't plug in the address in our handy-dandy gps - so we had to call the owner in the UK to give us directions. it was kind of late by the time we got to the house (after midnight). ugh! this was a long, long day! But, we're excited to be at the beach for the next 7 days. Shae can't wait to get her feet wet in the mediterranean.

I'd been to Spain for like a month now and I hadn't seen the sea yet, so I decided to change things and get a bit of suntan. I called up 3 friends, we packed ourselves to a comfortable train and after an hour or so we got off in Cadiz, an important harbour and a really nice city on the Costa de la Luz.

Although I went there for the first time in February, it was so warm that I could stay in the swimsuit and survive. We started with a cheerful visit in a ...

... Although hostal world advertised the hostal to be in ronda it was infact in a nearby village of cartajima. After hours of u-turns and toll roads and mistakes reading the map we finally arrived far after we told to inn keeper we would be there. The hostal was adorable in the small and gorgeous village. Only about 150 peopel live there. By the time we got there our alcoholic/hilarious/english inn keeper, Boss, was already drunk and had prepared us an amazing meal of paella ...

Als ik het vergeten te zeggen was, Iedereen dus bedankt voor de kaartjes en smsjes en kadootjes! En aan Vanessa ne super dikke knuffel (je weet wel waarom). Woensdag was er zovéél wind dat we amper vooruit raakten met onze fiets, ni normaal. De spanjaarden zijn bovendien doof voor fietsbellen, ik moet meestal stuk of 4keer bellen vooraleer ze opzij gaan, meestal gaan ze gewoon ni opzij en als ge dan passeert, verschieten ze zich een ongeluk en maken van hun oren da ge ni belde, jamaja ...

... We hebben vrijdag ook wat kaartjes gekocht en we wilden uiteraard ook postzegels hebben, maar daarvoor moesten we naar de post, die een eigenaardig systeem hebben. Je moet dus een ticketje nemen en dan moet je kiezen tussen de knoppen A, B of C naargelang je iets wilt kopen of versturen of aankrijgen en dan heb je dus een ticket met een letter en nummer op en dan moet je wachten totdat je letter en nummer op een display verschijnen en op die display staat ook op aan welk ...

... t even remember going up the steps-I bounded up them, taking them three or four at a time and came barreling through the door, breathless. I got inside, they asked me name, I gave it to them, and they handed me two tickets, just like that. So we all got on the 1 train for the forth time that day and went back to Camp Nou. We got there a little late, due to circumstances which I will skip over here, but we caught a taxi to get to the stadium, and I literally shivered when I heard ...

... a beautiful clean beach to walk along to boot. i dont get hasselled walking in the streets which is great, good to just wander around this relaxing town. head towards my next destination, go to the bus stop and see other backpackers so i know i am in the right spot, get on a bus that i hope is going to where i want to go, yep yep it is, see some different country side alongthe way and am glad that i am only going a few hours up the road
