Hotel La Najarra Almunecar

... je dors dans une caravane, dans le jardin, j'ai une casita, c'est chouette!  J'investis très rapidement les lieux... Ca me fait beaucoup de bien de me poser dans un endroit si calme, et rempli d'une belle énergie de vie! La vie simple de la campagne me plaît.. A côté de la caravane, se trouve une douche solaire (yeah!) et des toilettes sèches!! décidément y a tout pour me plaire ;-) J'essaie de parler espagnol, je sens que mon ...

After all the driving yesterday, we decided we didn't want to get in the car and drive anywhere today. So we spent the whole day at the beach. Shae played with several new friends from the uk. She was digging in the sand for about 4 hours. I don't even think she made it to the water. It was a very relaxing day. Later we drove into a nearby ...

We decided to make today another Shae day. We headed to the beach early and rented a couple of chairs with an umbrella. You know how hard this is for mike and i. we are not beach-goers. but Shae was so excited to build sand castles and play in the water. We lasted close to 2 hours. it was nice. Mike got to catch up on his spanish cards and i finally got to start reading a book on my kindle. We ate lunch at an outdoor cafe and met the owner, Michel from ...

... a bucket of scraps and headed out to feed the donkeys. Along the way she was accosted by a cute little pot-bellied pig who stole her bucket and started munching! He was so cute! <br><br>After the donkey sanctuary we headed out for a drive to explore the area more. The beaches are surround by beautiful mountains. We headed up to a mountain village called Frigiliana. We had a nice lunch there and set out to explore the rest of the area. After a 1.5 hour ...

After getting in late the night before we got a pretty late start the next morning The place where we're staying is a 5 minute walk to Burriana Beach. A very popular beach in this area. The weather has been incredible our entire trip 70s and 80s the whole time. Apparently, this is unusual for this time of year here. It's tends to be a bit cooler. But the beaches are full of sunbathers even in mid-October. We really picked a good time to ...

There is a first time for everything and today I decided to go to the toilet off a cliff. Although the Siera Nevada mountain range is argueably the most beautiful place we have been its hard to appreciate it when you have to cycle uphill in 40 degree heat for hours. I find the best way to push yourself through it is to simply swear loudly for ...

... ago (January 1970), some of these places were just fishing villages and there were miles of scrub brush between villages along a winding coastal road.<br><br> I was apprehensive about driving, privately nervous about it for the past few days. I can handle the roundabouts OK but some of the road lights/signs are a bit low key. I kept the speed about 10kph under the limit, and watched ...

... long bus ride, we arrived at a pretty awesome beach. A beach of pebbles though, not sand...which was actually pretty nice since they were smooth and didn't get into everything. We tried to find our hotel, went all over the city, went to the wrong place, and ended up staying at a hostel cramming 12 people into 2 rooms: 2bed, 3bed. After dropping off most of our stuff we went down to the beach that was about 100yards away (it was a pretty sweet ...

... t end up showing up (we think he got lost) but the rest of us went for drinks and dinner. After a bit of trekking around, we ended up at a fairly nice restaurant / bar near Plaza de Carmen. Was an interesting evening as we were such a mixed group - Eva is 53 and keen on working as a volunteer on organic farms around the world, Susannah is (I think) in her late 50s / early 60s and comes from Texas, while Jonathan is 21 and ...

I thought I´d better do this before the days just sort of melt together like they tend to do while you´re traveling. It happens when you never know what day of the week it is. I´ve started to just keep track of things by counting how many nights I spend at hostels. My 4th night tonight in Granada, so that means I leave tomorrow. That´s all that matters! Yesterday, I woke up and headed back up to the Alhambra this time to actually do it. Got there around 11 to stand in line for ...
