Trafalgar cape

Decided to visit the Trafalgar Cape where there is now a lighthouse. It is a long way. We have to do the 15 min walk to the beach and then walk all along the beach which looks miles. I suggested a few options including taking Wishstream, getting a taxi ( there at least) riding our bikes with pups running alongside and finally Me not going at all. Jc said they were all pathetic ideas and we set off around 11.00. It was a glorious walk and I wouldn't have missed it for the world.




The dogs raced around in and out of the sea and met loads of friends of all makes and sizes. The Cape has the story of the battle printed on a board. It has a picture of an aerial view of how the ships were placed and each ship is named. It is written from the Spanish point of view and failed to mention who had won. A Spanish girl reading the board asked us if we knew.

The walk back was slow but we got back to a warm and comfy Wishstream just as the rain started.

  1. Cabo de Trafalgar a high spot for us too. El Rocio & The Donana Nat Park pretty interesting if time. Faro holds good memories for us lots to see around as you will know. Have good time with Dins, hope all straight forward with John.
