Ah…..Andalusia! What a change it was stepping onto European soil after predominantly touring the developing world over the past 150 days. Even though most of the major European countries had a profound (not always positive) impact on many of the countries we travelled through as Dorothy says “There´s no place like home”. Well not our home exactly, but when you step off the boat from Morocco; breeze through immigration; saunter into the quaint town of Tarifa, Spain; check in to one of the plushest hostels we have experienced and literally walk right into a knock-off Texas Star Fajita Bar complete with genuine fajitas and margaritas, you can close your eyes and almost imagine you are back in your own surroundings. If that wasn´t enough when you look at the bill you definitely know you are back in the ´real´world….$3 beers….seriously when is the last time we paid anything over $1!! Well at least we can get beers now!! Two weeks in Morocco was a good detoxing after South Africa. As you might be able to glean we are getting a little bit worse for wear and this insertion into the West was just what the Doctor ordered. Time to let loose and enjoy Andulusia like the Europeans and British…..consume, consume, consume without any regard for prices!!

There´s no better time to do that than Becca´s birthday month!
