Last year, while we were in southern Spain, Kim had expressed the wish to visit Córdoba but somehow we skirted all around without ever visiting. Thinking we would fix this omission we headed up toward this famous city.

Our campsite is conveniently situated about a 30 minute walk away from the Puerta de Almocábar across the road from a small plaza, Ruedo Alameda where you can begin your visit to historic Ronda.

Although I lack any real evidence, I am convinced one of the little buggers stole one of my flipflops overnight! 🙂

Camping Las Lomas

It was good to see Andy for the few days he was with us and he enjoyed his stay too. The only downside personally was a hastily performed parking manoeuvre at Alicante airport when we picked him up that resulted in me wounding the car on an unseen metal post. Doh!
