weekend #25 photos
Greetings from sunny Andalucia, Spain!
Here are a couple of photos shot through a car window…
navigating…actually not needed but it was fun 
we paid three tolls, 6.50e, 4.60e, 3.05e – you can avoid them by driving older roads
fercam is a company
maghreb is Arabic meaning ‘place where the sun sets’, opposite of mashriq
beautiful sunflowers but difficult to shoot from a moving car
a zillion wind turbines, they look magical…
Cape Trafalgar (Spanish Cabo Trafalgar)
Cape Trafalgar (Spanish: Cabo Trafalgar) is a headland in the Province of Cádiz in the south-west of Spain.
The name is of Arabic origin, with the modern pronunciation being a corruption of ‘Tarf al-Gharb’ (Arabic: طرف الغرب) meaning ‘Western Cape’ or ‘Cape of the West’.

And finally…
we enjoyed swimming in the pool after 10 hours of traveling…
It’s always good to know where to powder your nose

makroviikko/macro week challenge #64
teema / theme: juhannus / midsummer
Vastaukseni / here’s my entry:
Ei ole vielä juhannusta näkyvissä saati makrona.
Luulen tämän olevan Aloe vera. Jos on, niin sehän hoitaa jos jussina kipeytyy
Is this Aloe vera? I don’t know…
We’re not celebrating traditional Finnish midsummer here,
just enjoying tapas and good wine!
Mukavaa juhannusta kaikille!
Ihanaa kesän jatkoa niille jotka jäävät bloggaustauolle!

Have a relaxing weekend!

Mukavassa säässä olet siellä ajellut, aurinko paistaa.
Juu, aloe vera kyllä hoitaa.
Kiitos! Rentouttavaa juhannuksen aikaa Sinulle!
Minusta tuo on aloe vera,vaikka vähän ruskehtavalta näyttää.Oliko paksut lehdet?
Mukavaa lomaa ja juhannusta en España!

I think those wind turbines are so neat – and so HUGE!
The edges of that plant look a lot like Aloe, but mine has always been greener.

I trust that one person was keeping their eyes on the road – preferably the driver…we cannot avoid the toll roads if we hope to make time, although the tolls seem kinda pricey…it looks hot on that drive, so the cool water at the beach is really appreciated!

Very nice pictures but wow,what expensive tolls.
Love your pictures! I was in Andulusia last summer staying in Nerja and LOVED every minute of it. I see you’re in Granada now! Looking forward to seeing those pictures. We also stayed there right on the grounds of the Alhambra at the Hotel America. One of our best trips ever!!!

Oh, I LOVED Spain! And I agree that the wind turbines were very magical. Are you near Tarifa? We stayed on the coast there a few days…
Best,
