Europe 2014 – Jerez: Horses and Sherry, What More Could a Man Want?
Timeline: June 25th We’d decided, based on the success we’d had with our two-night blast through Burgos and Leon to do Gibraltar the same way, that is spend two nights in a hotel. We’d made a reservation in advance, based on the Steve’s Guide at Hostal La Campana, which is located on the Spanish side […]
Europe 2014 – Sevilla, Coincidence is Just God’s Way of Remaining Anonymous
We returned to town the next day for a pair of tours recommended in the Steves guide, hosted by Conception Delgado. The first, Sevilla Cultural Show and Tell was a nicely paced and informative 15 Euro visit that hit the highlights of the central part of town, full of background information about it, the lives […]
Europe 2014 – Sevilla, We Succumb to a Burger Craving
The drive from Lisbon to Sevilla (Seville) took about five hours, one hour longer than if we had used the toll roads. While not a difficult drive, particularly as much of it was on two lane highways out in the country, it was still a bit tiring. We arrived at Camping Villsom and by the […]
Europe 2014 – Santiago de Compostela – The End of the Camino
We’d stopped at a Carrefour in Lugo and picked up dinner supplies there, so we set up at Camping As Cancelas, had our meal, including a bottle of that nice white wine we’d discovered in Pamplona, and then made our way down to the restaurant/bar of the campground to check out the ambience and the […]
Europe 2014 – Burgos and Leon or the Hit and Run Cathedral Tour
Our plan for the next two days would be to stay in a hotel each night in Burgos and Leon. Outside of their respective cathedrals, neither town had much more to see and for a bit more than the cost of camping, we could take in the sights, make time, and gain a day […]
Europe 2014 – Pamplona Minus the Bulls
It was a pretty long, but uneventful drive from the Dordogne down to Pamplona. We hit a couple of short sections of toll road, but the charges were reasonable. We crossed over into Spain just south of Bayonne and Biarritz on Highway N121-A, a good road that brought us to Camping Ezcaba, about five miles […]
