Adventures in Andalucia

Peek-a-boo!!



Jumping fun on the Mediterranean - have a couple extra kids with us!

Look ma - new hair style!!! :)

Today was another amazing day here in Paradise. They definitely didn't pave it to put up a parking lot...hahaha :)

We took a gorgeous tour of the lovely town of Sevilla this morning. We walked around the quaint streets, went inside the Santa Maria Cathedral where Christopher Columbus is buried, took a break in the Santa Cruz area, toured the bullring and the museum, explored the amazing Alcazar palace - the Royal palace of Sevilla - and it's lovely gardens, and ended with some free time/shopping/lunch near the cathedral. Many kids went for tapas for lunch and enjoyed ordering in Spanish :)

We all hopped back on the bus - said good-bye to Jesus' hometown and headed south. Along the route, Jesus bought the kids some of his favorite snacks to share. We enjoyed those while watching the amazing countryside go by with all it's olive trees and sunflower fields.... amazing!

Our next stop was in Ronda - a white-washed village nestled in the mountains with amazing cliffs and a cool bridge. A few kids hiked to the bottom... and even got in the waterfall. the kids loved the village, of course! :)

We finally arrived in Benalmadena, our last home of the trip. It's a coastal town and I can see the Mediterranean from my hotel window :) After a quick dinner, took the kids down to the beach...they walked, they walked the boardwalk, they played soccer... I sat in the beach chair & watched the sunset...sigh...

Tomorrow is a BIG day for us!! We're off to Morocco - continent numero tres!!! :)

Keep us in your thoughts & prayers as we tour this new continent...and ride camels!! :)
