It was the best trip of my life.
Susan and I left on Friday morning to drive down to Tarifa and catch the fast ferry (35 minutes) to Tangier. We got there in plenty of time to have coffee and toast at the aptly named Carpe Diem café, and then made our way to the port across the street. Arriving at the port in Tangier was the beginning of a four-day adventure that was nothing I could have imagined …

When Pip and I were in Tangier this past (long) weekend we ate at the Hamadi Restaurant twice. They have a wonderful group of musicians there who play delightful music while you dine. This was taken on our second visit – the guys already “knew” us by then and were happy to appear in a video. I told them I was going to make them famous. 🙂
Here’s something to listen to while you patiently wait for me to organise my photos.

Pip and I are stranded in Tangier!
The ferries were cancelled due to high winds yesterday and so we came back into town to try and get a room at our hotel – but they were fully booked! After looking around a bit we ended up at a rather scary place down by the port (more on that later). It’s still VERY windy out there this morning, but we are off to the ferry station again to see if we can get home today.
Wish us luck!

| You Are Quite Worldly |
 You’ve done a good bit of worldly exploring, and you have an international perspective. And you’re definitely looking forward to your future adventures abroad. You’ve got the passport, the desire to travel, and maybe even the language skills. Now all you need are the means! |

Today’s Photohunter theme is “nautical”.

Taken on the beach in Málaga. There are several beachfront restaurants that serve “espetos”, which are a special type of sardine only found in the Málaga area. They are skewered on wooden sticks and barbequed in these small boats.
