Garbi Costa Luz Costa De La Luz Cadiz Conil de la Frontera

Hello again!<br> As I said previously, I'm going to jump around a bit and not just go day by day in this blog. Therefore, this entry begins on September 19th on a train heading to Cadiz, Spain. This was my first adventure in Spain with my friends outside of Cordoba, my first excursion. <br> Honestly, I can't even remember exactly how I met all the people I've become close with on this trip. Well, I guess that's not true. I already told you how I met ...

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 ...

... of the sweetest sherry called "Nectar" for 8 Euro. I really didn&#8217;t like their regular sherry though. They were pretty cool though. When celebrities or royalty come visit, they have them sign a barrel of Tio Pepe instead of signing a guestbook! And they have a family of mice that are sherry connoisseurs. One of the distillery ...

We got up really early (for us vacationers). It was about 8:15am. We decided we would drive 2 hours to a city called Jerez de la Frontera to see the famous dancing horses of Jerez. The tour guide said it was worth the drive... We arrived to another city. Not as big as Seville, but a city nonetheless. Shae was super excited to see the dancing horses. The show started at noon and lasted 1.5 hours. Shae lasted about 20 minutes - which was pretty good for her ...

... streets at night. There might have been several million of the carnaval people in Cadiz that night, I think.<br><br>By the way, the most original and interesting costumes were of Lego; there were also a few people dressed up as Mario, the pope or Heineken bottles, but my personal best was a guy dressed up as Facebook. He was unbeatable.<br><br>Our train was scheduled for the evening, when it was already dark, and when the festival was actually about to begin. I ...

Lieb** Les**, Freunde und Bekannte, ja, ihr habt Recht, d** letzte Eintrag liegt Monate zurück und wir haben diesen Blog schleifen lassen. Dies liegt sich** auch daran, dass wir uns manchmal aufraffen müssen, um bei diesen schönen Wett** an den Rechn** zu gehen um zu schreiben. Ab** auch waren and**e Pflichten wie Arbeit ein Grund für die V**spätung. Od** vielleicht einfach auch nur Faulheit ? :-) Ja, ich v**suche die letzten Monate chronologisch etwas zu v**vollst ...

... fters mal auf Spanisch erklären, ganz zu schweigen von Englisch. Zum Punkt Erziehung gibt es auch was zu berichten: Damit unser Hund Moses uns nicht auf der Nase herumtanzt, muss eine harte Hand greifen. Unser Hund kann inzwischen schon Sitz, Platz, Ball holen (*stolz*) Spaß beiseite, der Racker ist ganz schön frech, es macht aber Spaß mit ihm am Strand zu sein und zu sehen wie er sich entwickelt..seht die Fotos -Abgesehen von dem leichten Druck der uns im Rücken sitzt haben wir ...

... taking scenic pictures, looking at the beautiful views and, best of all, watching the MONKIES!!!!! I've never seen monkies in their natural habitat before. I could have watched them for days! Unfortunately I only had about 8 hours on the rock before I had to get my stuff from the hostel and catch a bus to Cadiz. I spent today sleeping in I finally got up in a haze and took a bus to the beach and slept there with my face in the sand for I don't ...

... message board for dogs i had become, so far it's been no problem. the 35 minute ferry ride into tangier was rocky! rains and heavy storm clouds loomed over Africa. crazy waves out there which for someone affected by motion sickness is a doozey but it's also a really comic time trying to walk around the ship. one of the ship's engineers took a liking to us and secured our bikes with impressive knots which kept everything good and safe ...

... that sort of thing only existed on postcards? Before heading into Cadiz, and after taking a detour into the very scenic but slightly smelly marshes, we stopped for the night at the Chiclana beach resort. After a walk along the beach we met up with Victor, who with his friend Julian has recently returned from a camper van trip around West Africa following pretty much the same route we intend to take. As Victor is a chef (and local bar owner) he produced a fantastic ...
