We are still on the move. Sorry we have not had the chance to add any updates. We had a wonderful time in Jaen, Cordoba, and Sevilla. We hope to add some accounts of those travels soon, but most likely not until after we get home.
Our trip to Germany has been equally great. We are currently in Berlin after spending 4 days by the Black Forest and one daz at Nschwannstein. Very cool.
Hope to post more soon and to get up many of our almost 5 gigs of photos…
The streets are wonderfully small. We watched a mini van try to turn up the street we are living above. They had to fold the mirrors to squeeze through and even so, there was a scratch along one side. There´s a rat´s nest of small crowded streets just beside the cathedral that sell almost all the same stuff. I think it´s all made in China.
We sat outside a bar last night, chatting with a couple from Holland. He is a Brit, she´s Dutch. They had their 15-month tot with them. Beer was cheap, and they kept bringing us free food with beer. Tapas! There´s an amazing amount of people on the streets here at night – makes Winnipeg seem so small. Sort of like Little Italy on a soccer final night except if the area was the entire downtown.
The kids like the bakeries. They like the pick-up food and strangely eat less, but better. There´s something to be said about this lifestyle…
Later,
Sandy
