I have to say that this was a lovely way to welcome summer this morning. View from my room at the fabulous Parador hotel in Antequera. Heading to Archidona later on today…

Having a great time in Antequera so far! I didn’t realise that it is considered to be kilometre 0 – or the dead centre – of all Andalucía. I say “considered” because if you look at that map you’ll see that it’s centrally located east-to-west but not north-to-south. Hmmm…
Anyhow, this is me standing in the centre of Andalucía! More later…

So I am packing and otherwise organising myself for a three-night, four-day trip and I think these guys know something is up. And yes, I feel so guilty leaving them! Or is it more that I don’t want to be without them? Whatever. I know they will be fine. Peter is coming overnight to Antequera, but will go back the following night, so really the cats will only be on their own two days (one night)… and yeah, they’ll have lots of food and water and a fresh litter box. So why do I feel so guilty?? *sigh*

After a couple of days slumming it at the Antequera Parador I’ll be spending a night at this dive… Almohalla 51 in Archidona! I’m actually very excited as I’ve heard nothing but great things about this fabulous B&B. When I found out that Archidona is just a 2o minute bus ride from Antequera it seemed like a good idea to also check out the Almohalla. And as luck would have it they had a room for me! Alternatravels research continues… 🙂

So remember back in February when I won this? Well, what with this and that, I hadn’t got round to booking a Parador Hotel for my free night (with brekkie) and then the other day I realised that if I didn’t do this in June then I’d have to wait until September. So I’m going to Antequera next week! Which has been on my “to do” list for ages. And it also fits in with being able to get some research done for Alternatravels. Win-win!
