Spain ~ Ronda & Grazalema

Simon and I took the comfortable train down to an amazing town called Ronda. In our original plans, we were only going to spend one day in Ronda, but once we arrived, we found that the friendly people, good food, beautiful architecture and scenery, and fun shopping avenue would keep us there longer. We ended up staying in Ronda for three nights. As you can see in the photos below, Ronda is an amazing white Andalusian town that is perched on the edge of a beautiful cliff. The old Moorish side of town is connected to the "new" more modern side of town by a spectacular bridge that has a waterfall passing through it. It felt like we had been transported in to an elf land. Simon and I walked all of town and down the cliff taking in the beautiful views.



























From Ronda we took a short bus ride to the town of Grazalema which is nestled in the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park. We staying in such a beautiful bed and breakfast that I wanted to move here and become a writer (lounging by the pool). This tiny white washed town was nestled in the most spectacular limestone peaks. The weather was perfect for us to take a hike up into the mountains. Afterwards we headed down to eat dinner with the locals in front of a warm fire and then it was time to make the long journey home.













As much fun as a trip overseas is, there is nothing like coming back home.
