Mmmm....holidays...

I have been thinking about holidays a lot recently...usually I would have my vacation booked by now but with the uncertainty in my job at present, things are somewhat "on hold"...however, if I am still in employment by September (yikes!), I would love to go to Cadiz in Andalucia, Southern Spain...off the beaten track and away from the mass tourist trail. I have found exactly where I would like to go and stay...Vejer de la Frontera, south of Seville and near the wild dune beaches of the Cape of Trafalgar. I have found this house for rent...it's a 1000 year old Moorish house at the top of the pueblos blancos (the gleaming white,cubist towns of Andalucia). The house is owned by a wonderful professional photographer (Christina Wilson) from the UK and I think it is just beautiful....the shots below are taken by Christina of the house..are they not stunning?? I can't wait to visit!

View to Vejer...

And finally, the nearby beach...



WOW! Isn't it stunning? What a beautiful house and what a great photographer! Check out her site to see all her work. Can't wait til September...I hope it will be available! Enjoy your day!
