Today we had booked a tour of the Alhambra palace and fortress near Granada. The second most visited place in Spain. We planned this as a day trip from Nerja as forecasts for Granada were in the 30’s and rising and we are enjoying the coastal cool. It was only an hour’s drive to Alhambra,Continue reading “Alhambra and Frigiliana – Nerja, Andalusia, Spain”

Today is a day off from the sightseeing momentum. Enjoying a day by the seaside in Nerja. We are in a quirky campsite, well established with fruit trees etc and with well separated pitches. We are camped under an avocado tree and managed to get a free windfall this afternoon when we returned! We areContinue reading “By the seaside – Nerja, Andalusia, Spain”

So we got to use our nice big tyres onContinue reading “Christopher Columbus explorations – La Rabida, Andalusia, Spain”

Thankfully the stables were only a 15 minute walk from the campsite so we all walked round to theContinue reading “Cowboy time, horse trails in – El Rocio, Andalusia. Spain”

Lizzy was bright as a button this morning, tail wagging non-stop on our short walk. She seems to have a thing about wearing clothes, she does a little dance at home when I put her in a towelling robe to dry off after a rainy walk. Consequently she seems positively giddy to be wearing herContinue reading “On the road again…back in Spain! – El Rocio, Andalusia, Spain”
