One good thing about the unstable and crazy weather on the Costa del Sol this spring has been the interesting and very photogenic sky. Below, a few pictures of Gibraltar from Alcaidesa with very captivating cloud formations.

We made our way to Cadiz on a very windy day and, unfortunately for us, on a day with a cruise ship docked. We expected to be among a few tourists and were instead caught up in a horde! Despite the crowds, though, we enjoyed wandering around at random and getting off the main streets. It was a bit bittersweet as this was the last place Felix went anywhere with us, but it was a really nice day and we found a great burger place to top things off (which Felix definitely would have enjoyed!). Cadiz is a beautiful city with a rich history. It's one of the oldest inhabited cities in western Europe with roots dating back to the 7th century BC. It's easily walkable and there are plenty of interesting things to see, so well worth the drive if you find yourself in Seville and are looking to explore outside the city.

Chiclana de la Frontera is a city in the province of Cadiz (Andalucia) near the bay of Cadiz. I'm not sure the city itself is worth a separate trip (sorry Chiclaneras/Chiclaneros!), but if you're in the area, for example visiting the city of Cadiz (only 20 km away), you could make a short stop. Some of Chiclana's tourist attractions are: the Torre del Reloj, the Plaza Mayor, the Iglesia de San Sebastian, the Iglesia de San Juan Bautista, and the Museo de Chiclana.

We dragged ourselves out of bed at the ungodly hour of 6:30am, with the aim of capturing the sun rising over northern Africa and the Strait of Gibraltar. It didn't work out quite the way we'd planned but it was still beautiful. At this point of the year, the sun isn't in the best position so we'll have to go back in the winter. But the blue hour always makes for nice shots, and the wind turbines were an interesting feature to focus on as the sun came up. I'm amazed we got any shots that weren't blurry, it was so windy we couldn't stand still!

Very unstable weather in Andalusia this winter. We took advantage of a rare sunny break last week for a little road trip. Nothing spectacular but it was nice to be back in places like Setenil de las Bodegas, Olvera and Ronda, before the hordes of summer tourists turn them into a nightmare.
