Cadiz. (Cadith) Spain---Province of Andalusia (Andaluthia)
Beautiful seacoast resort town where they clean the sandy beaches every day--cool
eh? They have over 300 days of sunshine here (like Az but not as hot). We
spent the day on an excursion to a nearby town--Jerez. Inland with rolling
hills & lots of vineyards. Jerez famous for sherries, brandies, other
wines---toured one of the biggest cellars--Tio Pepe & had a big tasting
of different kinds of sherries. When they say dry they mean dry--less than
one gram of sugar per liter. Then the rest of the day spent at the Andalusian
equestrian riding school watching them train these magnificent horses. (Much
like the Lippizaner horse show in Vienna). Attended a show in their beautiful
arena where they performed "their stuff". We were not supposed to
take pics but I didn't hear them....heh heh. Great day in an absolutely gorgeous
area of Spain. No---didn't buy any sherry but did get a bottle of Tempranillo--yummy
red. Note pic of stork nest above horse training area.
