Francia y Paris Cádiz

... night stopping here for ice cream, there for a quick drink, over there for a few dances. It was fun, but we were all tired from the day so we walked back at about 4am (I'll explain "Spanish Time" in my next entry).
That night, LIzzy and I had opted for the sleeping mats laid out on the Terrace (all the hammocks were occupied), which was fine because 1) I woke up with zero bug bites, and 2) I woke up next to a gorgeous German guy on the mat next ...

So today we didn't have an excursion because we had our own private tour guides in Rachel's host family from three years ago. They met us at the pier and were so happy to see Rachel it was great! They took us on a walking tour of historic Cadiz and we had breakfast at one of their places they like and we had churros an coffee with milk. Loly knew everyone we walked by it seemed and although they spoke no English and we speak little Spanish we were ...

... set up a little ladder so that the mice could drink the sherry out of a wine glass!


Then we went to the horse show. Very similar to what the Lippanzaner Stallions do. It was…an experience…but I don’t think I’ll ever go watch something like that again. But I can at least say that I've seen it.

... show was actually really good - she just got very bored, very quickly. you see one horse dance you've seen them all...Mike took her outside to play in the courtyard. The arena is set in a beautiful garden with a fountain. They had a ton of fun running around the garden and I thoroughly enjoyed the dancing horse show. There are 8-12 horses and horsemen who come out in the arena and do the most amazing horse dances all to beautiful spanish music. It is ...

... linna ning teine linn oli koht, kust Columbus ostis oma teise Ameerika ekspeditsiooni jaoks laeva, samuti on see koht, kust ta minema purjetas. Kuna meil oli endiselt soov flamenkot näha, siis langetasime valiku Jerezi kasuks.

Turismiinfost saime teada, kus toimuvad turistidele suunatud (tasuline) ja kus kohalike (tasuta) showd. Viimase nägemiseks saime juhised ja kaardi ning asusime tunnike ...

... it was hard to make our way down the street. A man was cutting spiny purple sea urchins in half and selling plates of 6 or 8 to passers- by. I couldn't see what there was to eat inside, but it was clear to me as he offered them that they were considered a delicacy. At the end of the day after a last cervaca and plate of olives, it was time to weaver our way down narrow streets, now empty due to the afternoon siesta, and ...

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 ...

POLSKI: Jurek jest, jak to sie tutaj mowi, moim "paesano", czyli pochodzi z tego samego kraju co ja. Jako inzynier, zwykle nie mial czasu wyjsc na miasto, bo musial byc na statku. Ale raz udalo mi sie go wyciagnac na spacer. Byla to wlasciwie ostatnia okazja, bo pare dni pozniej Jurek zjezdzal do domu na 10-tygodniowe wakacje. Dzieki takim ludziom jak on latwiej mi przetrwac kontrakt, szczegolnie okres swiateczno-noworoczny. Facet pracuje na ...

... I will definitely be giving updates once that starts. The waves at Santa Maria have been getting pretty big recently so I am exciting to start surfing them. Also, We have a 3 day weekend next weekend so we were going to go to morrocco but decided to call it off and save it for a longer trip.
