It was a wet day… We meant to go walking in the wandering dune of Valdevaqueros, but it was raining, so we just drove through… Then we headed along the coast, towards Barbate. The roads weren’t in very good condition… The scenery reminded us of Scotland! We postponed our walk to the next day…

Our spot for the night was above Tarifa, so we had a good view of the viillage and across the sea to Morocco. It’s a bird watching place, and apparently you can see thousands of migrating birds in spring and autumn. Unfortunately it was too cold 😦 Lots of flowers, and the Strait of Gibraltar:…

I’ve been looking forward to Gibraltar, to hear some English spoken, to have the „British feeling“ 🙂 We saw the Rock of Gibraltar getting closer. After walking over the border (notice my cousin Gerd’s shoes and socks from http://www.anziehendes.ch !) we had to cross the landing strip of the airport -there is no other way…

Since we arrived in Ronda the night before, we could start with the sightseeing straight away. Ronda is a town basically built on two rocks, separated by the river Guadalevín. We walked to the famous Puente Nuevo. Apparently it took 40 years to build the bridge, and it’s 100 meters high! The houses are standing…
