Hotel El Paraiso Estepona

... smaller group, though I think I had a slight ulterior motive. <br><br>Today we are heading to the ferry to where the real journey begins and we ascend onto the African continent. I am so excited! Though I did prepare, I enjoyed my last hot shower immensely before leaving the camp ground in Spain. All in all it seems like a great group of people but 43 weeks with anyone is *************e such multi cultural groups like this. It should be really amazing.

... No words or pictures could fully capture the essence of this city, you just have to be there to fully experience its beauty. I then explored the city, going to places that are not commonly visited by tourists, I did some shopping, had a beer and tapas at a small restaurant and then walked through the park. Unfortunately, the day was cut short due to time restrictions and I did not have the chance to do everything I wanted to do but I will definitely be back.

... mes nuits dans la nature.. et bien je la revis un peu avec lui et lire ce livre me sert en quelque sorte d'exutoire... Je ne compare pas son aventure avec mon voyage, nous n'avons pas les mêmes sources d'angoisse (lui, c'est les ours!!!!).. mais il délire sur un endroit où il décide de camper un soir et explique "mon esprit chercher à se distraire, à fuir les pensées négatives qui renaissent à chaque tombée de la nuit"<br>Nous ...

... Gibraltar was such a crazy place to visit. Although the official language is English, all the residents are completely fluent in both English and Spanish. It truly is the land of "Spanglish." British flags, along with the flag of Gibraltar were displayed everywhere. It seemed that everyone in our group was trying to soak up the English buying Reces Peanut Butter Cups, and other candy and drinks you can't ...

... been a giveaway! Pete - Not being a fussy eater, I like most food I'm served. Had a few dodgy ones, but that's just because I paid good money for something a bit ordinary.....not that the food was really bad. Funniest Thing Harri - Watching my mother get on a segaway in Paris Tom - Dave "Victor John Deere" Sutherland's lawn mower comparison to a segway. Shaz - When Dave Sutherland said that riding a segway (in Paris) was similar to using a ride on ...

... settled into our new home and she lived up to her promise. She bought a great Spanish cook book and loved dog-earing every page that she successfully completed. We've loved eating it all. The day before Jer left we drove up to Malaga to pick up our next visitors, Michelle and Alex. They are very good friends from Philadelphia, Des and Michelle have been friends since college. We have felt so lucky to be able to spend time along the way with the people we love. It was a blast ...

... a then brisk walk across the tarmac of Gibraltar's airport. Wisely we parked on the Spanish side of the border, which gives you a great view of the territory and famous landmark. A pub lunch set the stomach straight and then it was onwards and literally upwards, through the city centre and past archetypally English ...

... me a lot of Wee Britain...just really British, only surrounded by things that are decidedly NOT British. Mostly British people, food, signage, and the like. Bobbies walking around (though not many of them). Construction of high rise apartments everywhere. And there were none of the famous Gibraltar monkeys, as they hung out higher up on the rock, which looks like a piece of cake that has been turned on its side. I only saw one monkey, but he wasn't ...

... ja paikoitellen hyvinkin jurkkä kalliokieleke. Meren puolelta kieleke on aika jyrkkä ja hyvin kallioinen, sisämäähän päin hieman loivempi ja kasvillisuuden peitossa. Kävimmé ensin pyörähtämässä Euroopan eteläisimmässä kohdassa ja ihailimme lahden takana näkyvää Afrikan rannikkoa. Sitten lähdimme ajelemaan kohti kallion huippua, missä sijaitsevat pääasialliset nähtävyydet. Ilmeni, että paikan nähtävyydet ovat juuri sellaisia, jotka miellyttävät meitä molempia. Kävimme ensin erääss ...
