Hostal Duque Huete

... on finit par le faire griller (vers 16-18 hrs), avant de le laisser refroidir sur le comptoir (fin de soiree) et de deposer les restes dans le congelateur (nuit)... On gele le matin, on a trois epaisseurs (les seules que l'on ait) et a 16heures, on espererait ne rien avoir... *** Je ne sais pas si les Portugais et surtout les Espagnols ont compris le but des noms de rue... et au Portugal des ...

Del centro parte una calle hacia el empinado casco antiguo de Cuenca y sigue lloviendo sin parar. Por ser el final nos alegró mucho encontrar una ganga: la Posada de San José, un antiguo monasterio del siglo XVII y colegio después, convertido en hotel rústico y conservando muchos detalles. Toda la parte antigua esta situada sobre la garganta del río Júcar y las vistas, bordeando toda la zona, son magnificas ...

... en montagne composé de rochers qui, avec l'errosion, ont pris des formes particuliéres. On y reste une heure á faire cette belle ballade, c'etait vraiment tres beau. Redescente de la montagne pour retour en ville avant d'aller, en debut d'apres midi, grimper une colinne qu'on avait vue sur la route de ce matin. Belle balade le long de rochers, en hauteur, avec une super vue sur un paysage que vous verrez sur les ...

... suggested that we´d asked for a gallon of petrol. After a brief debate around the semantics we settled for soup. Cuenca is famous for its ´hanging houses´ made necessary by the decision to build the town on the top of a big rock. It was this big rock that we were now walking up, the lactic acid build-up in my calves making me reconsider whether a constant diet of Jamon Serrano y queso, was entirely healthy ...

Salut á vous, La nuit derniére a été horrible ! Peu dormis et ce matin, je me suis levé malade!!! Mal de tète, mal au ventre! Je pense que c'est á cause d'un plat á l'ail d'hier soir que j'ai mangé. Avant de prendre la route, direction la pharmacie. Le pharmacien m'a donné des cachets pour la tète et pour la digestion. Ca tombe mal car on avait presque 300 km de route á faire. On a pris la route mais une pause dodo s'est fait ressentir en court de route ! J'ai ...

Una visita pendiente durante mucho tiempo. En plena A-3, la ruta entre Madrid y Levante, en el km 103 hay una salida que indica "Parque arqueolñogico de Segóbriga". Se trata de la mayor ciudad romana de la meseta ibérica conservada y excavada. Teatro ...

We only stopped over back in Madrid on our way to Buenos Aires, but I have to make a special mention of the brand new Madrid airport, which I neglected to do previously. It's ****! You know how I said there was worse to come than CDG in Paris? Yes, well, this was it. Barcelona was pretty ***** as well. The End.

Left Madrid on Dec. 27 and headed for Cuenca. There was suppose to be these hanging houses. More like houses slightly over the edge of the rock face than hanging. Cuenca is a small town but there were some cool museums and buildings. On the 29th when we left Cuenca and got the train to Valencia where we encountered an ...

So what can i say about Madrid - beautiful weather, fountains, art galleries oh and the prostitutes outside the hostel!!! Other than that there isn´t too much to see!!! On Sunday we took advantage of the free galleries - the Prado and Sofia which were mind blowing!! had lunch in the botanic gardens and went to see some flamenco dancing. The dancing was a highlight indeed! On Monday we went on some random walks around the city that lead us to ...

... and cold too. Unfortunately it was Sunday, and after wandering around a little bit we realized finding food would be difficult. It took some more driving and some more complaining before we gave up and pulled into a McDonalds, my first in Spain. It felt like something of a defeat but it was good, filling, and familiar. Satiated, we headed for home. We reached Valencia about dark and with an empty gas tank. After ...
