Flashback Friday: Cordoba

¡Feliz Friday! For the second week, we're continuing to be timely with our procrastination, by putting up some pics that were taken a while back but that we still want to share. Last week it was our trip to Barcelona, this week it's Cordoba. We've actually been twice, but these pictures are from our first trip in  November. Cordoba is known for its stunning mosque, which is preserved inside of what is now a church. Beyond that it is a lovely town, filled with Moorish history and architecture.

Ronda Roadtrip: Pastries and Puentes

No road trip has truly started until you have your fat-kid snacks.  In the States, we generally stick to swedish fish, sour patch kids, crab chips, and diet Dr. Pepper.  But since we started our drive in the morning (and because crab chips and Dr. Pepper are unavailable in Spain - we've been told that the delicious 23 flavors taste like medicine...que?!?) we went with pastries instead.

"La Perla" is Spanish for "shop around the corner that sells baked goods and puts up with our terrible Spanish."

We washed these tasty treats down with a Coke Light...which we swear tastes better than Diet Coke.

Our first Spanish road trip, to Arcos, was only 45 minutos away, so this time we decided to venture a little farther, to Ronda.  Located in the rocky hills of the Malaga province, Ronda is a larger city, part of which is a traditional pueblo blanco, similar to Arcos.  You can read more fun facts from the interwebs aqui.
