Francabel Cuenca

... have hit the ground. The street was so full of people I had to ask if there was a festival going on, but this is just a normal Sunday afternoon in the city center of Madrid. I was still very exhausted from spending the night on the train, but I couldn't resist the allure of life in large quantities, and I decided to head out into the city to see what was happening.<br><br> Walking trough Puerta del Sol is kind of like trying to find your way to ...

... on finit par le faire griller (vers 16-18 hrs), avant de le laisser refroidir sur le comptoir (fin de soiree) et de deposer les restes dans le congelateur (nuit)... On gele le matin, on a trois epaisseurs (les seules que l'on ait) et a 16heures, on espererait ne rien avoir... *** Je ne sais pas si les Portugais et surtout les Espagnols ont compris le but des noms de rue... et au Portugal des ...

Del centro parte una calle hacia el empinado casco antiguo de Cuenca y sigue lloviendo sin parar. Por ser el final nos alegró mucho encontrar una ganga: la Posada de San José, un antiguo monasterio del siglo XVII y colegio después, convertido en hotel rústico y conservando muchos detalles. Toda la parte antigua esta situada sobre la garganta del río Júcar y las vistas, bordeando toda la zona, son magnificas ...

... 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 ...

... suggested that we´d asked for a gallon of petrol. After a brief debate around the semantics we settled for soup. Cuenca is famous for its ´hanging houses´ made necessary by the decision to build the town on the top of a big rock. It was this big rock that we were now walking up, the lactic acid build-up in my calves making me reconsider whether a constant diet of Jamon Serrano y queso, was entirely healthy ...

... 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.

... and cold too. Unfortunately it was Sunday, and after wandering around a little bit we realized finding food would be difficult. It took some more driving and some more complaining before we gave up and pulled into a McDonalds, my first in Spain. It felt like something of a defeat but it was good, filling, and familiar. Satiated, we headed for home. We reached Valencia about dark and with an empty gas tank. After ...

I was waking up very slowly. I vaguely remember when I was a kid, I was terrible getting up by 7:45am for school despite my mother and grandmother's help, but on the other hand I was always ready to go out by 7am by myself on the weekends. -Where is the energy gone? Where is the vast excitement for each Sunday gone? (Japanese schools used to be 6 days a week) Am I getting so old... Well it's probably better to think that I still have half ...

... it's no good". Then the voice from the interphone got louder; -°°àààà**+++^^"à2à#############!!!!!!! I shouted back; "Thanks! Bye!" The voice was gone. After that I managed to find a nice cheap hostal with a very friendly owner. Now I would like to remind you again that English is not widely spoken in Spain and attempting to speak in Spanish is always more welcomed and practical. TBC Llubio de beso, KEI
