Un coche, dos alemanas, y esta alaskeña

Road trips have to be one of my favorite things to do on any given 3-day weekend in any country. Life here without a car actually isn't bad, but when I find out about cool, new places to visit (or want to buy groceries, or go to work, or go to Lepe city, etc) deep down I wish I had my own set of wheels. However, when my monthly expenses do not include insurance, gasolina, oil changes, repairs for that maldito transmission replacement, etc, I am glad to navegate this country by foot, friend's cars, or ever-so-thrilling public transportation.

Anywho, this weekend I found myself with two German friends, 4 wheels, and lots of great sight-seeing, hiking, and adventure, that took us from castles in the Sierra in Portugal, to waterfalls and lakes, to hiking the Flecha de El Rompido, sunsets at the beach, and more. I sure love this little rincón of Andalucía.

Good times hiking in the sand dunes..
