Hotel Del Mar El Puerto de Santa Maria

... 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 ...

... and Cameron Diaz in it. I hope they get a part! Lunch was interesting and kind of like eating in a Chinese restaurant as the plates just kept coming! After lunch we said goodbye to the sons and continued walking and finally ended up back at the ship but not before taking a rest in the Plaza DE Espana across from the ship. When we were there the park cat ladies came by and fed the wild cats who were pretty friendly. Great ending to a very nice day!

... of the sweetest sherry called "Nectar" for 8 Euro. I really didn’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 ...

July 13-15



Monday was a road trip to get to our next stop, Arcos de la Frontera, but we took the indirect route, swooping down to Gibraltar and looping back up the Atlantic coast through windy Teneriffe.. The route took us through another valley dotted with white villages that spill down the mountainside. The towns were sometimes under defensive castles; there were Renaissance towers ...

... came by and invited us to join them (and 20 friends from the classic car club) on a trip to the roman ruins in Bologna. Jose Luis even allowed us to drive one of his collection. Emine had just finished her degree in computer studies and of course had to have a party. 30 of their closest friends showed up to celebrate. It just so happened that I knew at least 20 of them and party we did! Left aligned photo tag: On Sunday we met ...

... geven voor de erasmussers enz met drank en hapjes mmm :-) (vooral belgische bieren en cava gekocht, we zullen is laten zien wat GOEI bieren zijn se). Twas super mooi weer dus zalig int zonnetje naar daar en trug gewandeld. Dan zijn we nog iets gaan drinken op den dijk met zicht op zee, altijd zalig! En 's avonds ben ik nog naar de bar van het hotel gegaan om afscheid te nemen. Ik had ondertussen al mijn nieuw hemdje aan gehad dak gekregen ...

... gekocht vr tien ritten, maar die zijn al bijna op. Het weer was wa bewolkt, en beetje regen, nu ist hier aant gieten (ja spanje blijft daar niet van gespaard), ma ze hadden da gezegd da het ging onweren, ma ondanks de wolken, bleef het steeds warm! Over onze campus is Parque Genovés, soort van botanische tuin, en omdat we weer om drie uur gedaan hadden en alles dan dicht is, zijn we daar wat gaan rondwandelen, was wel mooi ...

... kicked the ball, from fifteen or so yards out, and lazered it into the upper corner, way beyond the keeper's reach. The stadium, for a third and final time, erupted. It was a once in a lifetime goal. It was the kind of goal that can't physically be believed. He didn't just fool the defenders, and everyone else in the stadium, he bamboozled them. When you talk about an athlete 'being like a magician,' that was akin to making the city of Barcelona itself disappear. For the ...

... in search of a bano as I could NOT wait. I don't know how full one's bladder has to be to burst, but I was horribly afraid that mine would. I walked through CROWDS of people passing an open, but CRAZILY hectic Burger King and another café that would not let me pee because they were closing...jerks. If there were an event like this in Chicago, one could find urinals EVERYWHERE...in Cadiz at 320am, no. I finally had to give up and passed the same, only closed ...
