Orgiva, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands debdeb80After 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 ...
Nerja, Andalusia, Spain stacicheckWe 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 ...
Nerja, Andalusia, Spain stacicheckWe started out today by visiting a donkey sanctuary in nerja. Shae was so excited to see the donkeys. It's a great place that rescues abused and neglected animals in the area. They have more than just donkeys (goats, sheep, turkey, pot-bellied pigs, dogs, cats, etc.) it's run by a family from the uk and solely survives on donations from visitors. It was so sad to see all the animals, but they are being well cared for and seem to enjoy their new home. Shae ...
Nerja, Andalusia, Spain stacicheckAfter 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 ...
Nerja, Andalusia, Spain stacicheck... the coast of the Costa Del Sol, it’s impossible to see any separation from one town to the next, or to hear anything other than a British accent. We even passed a “British School”. Non-stop condos that are rented to the sun-seeking English line the entire coastline. Included Nerja as one of those towns yet, the old town centre was still neat. When I was here 39 ...
Nerja, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands thedicksons... they had a PING PONG table! My love and joy that I had not entertained for months...and I found a table in Granada, Spain. How awesome! I realized, then, that I had to secure a place here at Oasis. My two new friends had to drag me away from my beer and ping pong table, as there was no way I could do it by myself =P That night was pretty chill, tapas and beer, and the Real Madrid game. I can't remember who they played, but they absolutely *killed* them! This, unfortunately, is ...
Granada, Spain papapeta33... no votive candles - you drop a coin into the machine at the side chapel of your choice and an electric light lights up for your prayers. There is a collection of important but particularly ugly paintings, sadly in need of restoration (rather more than the ceiling it seemed), but the place is brightened up by some very pretty modern stained glass and some enormous, luminously illuminated, Medieval music manuscripts. Next door is the Capilla Real with the tombs of Isabel ...
Granada, Spain hdh... the straits of Gibraltar for Morocco. from my travel journal: some places one must come to from the sea, and experience them the way history has experienced these places. Watching the north coast of Africa slide past the rail, all my thoughts sifts through the literary, acedemic impressions i have of these place and i wonder what is really there. this is my opportunity scrape the surface and begin to understand.
Motril, Spain and Canary Islands pixycat... Lago de Enol & Lago de la Ercina) are 1100m above sea level, and very alpine looking with the sound of cow bells (and goat bells) everywhere. This is also the area of the old Buferrero mines where I met the tin man (see photo). On the drive back down the 12k of steep, winding road, Bronwen's brakes started to overheat giving us a good excuse for lunch and to buy some local cheese from the side of the road - weird stuff, made from 3 parts cow, goat and sheep's milk ...
