Mama wanted to stop at Cabo de Trafalgar because it was on the shipping forecast. My goodness me what a wind. There were thousands of kite surfers.

A shipwreck |
And not much else apart from lots of dog caca and a shipwreck.
It was all a bit wild. So we went to Tarifa. It was wilder there.
 |
More kites |
They do like this kite surfing business. I told Mama that when I get older I am going to grow so tall that I am going to be a Kite Lifter.
 |
Africa |
She said we could see Africa. I got very excited as I thought we might be able to see tigers but we couldn't. Only kite surfers.
 |
Tarifa |
We free camped on the beach and cycled into the old town. We nearly blew away. But the next place made up for it. Casares. We liked it there.
 |
Oi what are you peeping at? |
Mama spent a very lot of time looking for big birds. She finally got a photo of one.
 |
Griffon Vulture |
We drove along this long bumpy windy road up a mountain and parked near the top next to the tourist information so Mama could steal their wifi.
 |
View from our mountain |
It was very beautiful. We could see the sea.
 |
The sea |
I climbed a whole mountain by myself and we nearly got eaten by some big dogs but Daddy saved our lives with Mama's umbrella.
 |
Mama's photo of the birds |
We had the most delicious meal in a restaurant there.
Baby goat roasted with garlic.
 |
Casares |
I liked it a lot. But we had a terrible night's sleep because the wind blew the van so hard Mama thought it was going to blow Nona over.
 |
Looking for something |
We didn't but it didn't stop her worrying. Mama wanted to live here forever but I'd run out of underpants and the promise of a nice big appartment with bath and uncles aunties nanas granddads friends and cousins was waiting so we clambered back down the mountain and onto Fuengirola.
I now have clean pants.
Oh, Joey, if only you could hear me laughing - you are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny! I think mama's picture of that big bird is terrific - what a thrill and what an achievement! Beautiful places and so wonderful to share them - and well done daddy with the umbrella - what a business THAT must have been! Thank you!! More more more!
