FUN-travel: Sevilla to Arcos de la Frontera, Spain
August 26, 2012 by Susan Clarke
Trip Day 41 – Monday, August 20 – Sevilla to Arcos de la Frontera, Spain
Plaza on Top
What I LIKE
Church in Plaza on Top
- there are 3 Starbuck’s within 5 minutes of our hotel
- 9:30 ready to go on to next big adventure
- take taxi to parking garage for $6 Euro
- not trying to drive on the crazy tiny, narrow streets
- don’t have to drive far
- 11:30 arrive – Arcos de la Frontera
- sheer cliffs
- dramatic views
- once again Parador is on the very top of the hill
- 12:30 lunch here – big mixed salad – tuna sandwich & beer
- stay cool & take siesta
- 8:30 – dinner @ Parador – “typical” local dish of huge white beans & ham, grilled tuna steak, salad – pretty good
What I DIDN”T LIKE
- had to go to all 3 Starbuck’s to find the one that opens @ 7:30 am
- OMG more twisty, teeny, tiny cobblestone lanes for streets
- really, really hot!
FF (FUN-fact) – Andalucía is the home of bullfights, flamenco, gazpacho, pristine whitewashed hill towns and glamorous Mediterranean resorts.
