Guadix: Going Underground
Posted by Squiffy on February 8th, 2008
I’m typing to you from a inside a cave. Our own personal cave with roaring log fire, thanks to Dave’s great boy scout skills. It’s great.
This morning we left Los Alcazares and drove south-west towards Granada, on day one of our Andalucian road trip. As is usual for Southern Spain, we had the road to ourselves and passed through some stunning scenery of blossom trees set against a back drop of arid mountains. In the early afternoon we arrived in Guadix, a fairly small town in which many residents live in caves carved out of the mountains. So when in Rome…..
We are staying in the local cave hotel, where we have our own self-catering cave for the night and it’s just bizzare. Although we’d been in a cave house on our previous Andalucia trip, we were still surprised to see a traditionally decorated cave with mod cons such as electricity and a TV. The highlight is definitely the log fire, which makes it cosy and comforting. Dave passed the true caveman test by building an excellent fire from kindling he collected from the great outdoors and which started 5 hours ago and is still going strong……

However, fortunately that this is the very best season for dieting.
When consume slowly, allowing your body’s internal clock the time it needs to know
when you’ve had enough. Especially being pregnant you want
to eat healthy meals on your child and yourself enabling
a successfully delivery and recuperation. Twinlab products focuses on vitamins, minerals, herbal and high performance based
sports nutritional products. Well, h2o is considered one with
the best solutions for health problems.
