... 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 ...

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’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 ...

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 ...

We left Gibraltar in mid afternoon and once back into Spain, headed south west on the N340 towards the most southerly tip at 'Tarifa'. The clouds continued to lift over Africa and we got great views of the Moroccan coast across the 'Straits of Gibraltar', until we turned the corner and headed north west. The road passed through reasonably flat country with large arable fields and it was nearly dusk when we arrived at 'Cadiz', the great ...

Llegamos a Cádiz a la 1.00 de la noche del viernes, y no teníamos ni idea de dónde podíamos dejar la caravana. Al final, en la alameda de Apodaca, en pleno centro, mirando al mar y al lado de la movida. Todo un pelotazo. La cosa no podía empezar mejor. Y luego... na noche de diversión, una mañaa de comparsas ...

... Danger!" "Broken" . His microwave and washing machine were written on with similar warnings... But he had A/C.. so we took it. "Adam", our new friend from the UK stayed with us. He was a cool guy. He´s a music teacher and had the summer off, so he grabbed his backpack and took off. Funny thing was that he is trying to keep under 20 Euro´s a day for his budget. This is just silly. I´m not sure if it can be done. Even if you were to sleep in the park everyday, it would be tough ...

... buses don´t go from the airport to Jerez so luckily when approaching the tourist information I mugged a young English couple and they agreed to share a taxi into town with me. I left them at the bus station as they were travelling on and after a lovely 15 minute wander (i e. lost confusion) I managed to find my hotel. It was swelteringly hot so after receiving my key from the friendly Andaluz at the desk I had a shower and fell asleep for a little siesta from ...

... brave spanish girl set off in two rental cars for the coastal town of Los Caños de Mecca. Its a pueblo (small town) about 30 km from the more widely known Cadiz. We had a house rented, but had no idea what to expect. We were more than happy with the situation once we got there though. Huge house with a big yard, tennis court, rooftop terrace, and grill. Also a mere ...
