My travel adventures!

My family was here for a week and we traveled all around Andalucia, and to Tangier, Morocco! It was amazing!












Here we are at the mirador in Granada!










My dad, Emoney and I at the Alhambra, Granada. What beautiful Moorish architecture!









The bullfighting museum at the arena in Ronda. How interesting! In the U.S. we don't have bullfighting, so my family
was very interested in this!









Then, we went to Tarifa to see where the Atlantic Ocean meet the Mediterranean sea. Such beautiful beaches!

THEN, WE CROSSED OVER THE STRAIT OF GIBRALTAR TO TANGIER, MOROCCO!!












Here we are on the African side, looking across the sea to Spain!













At the market with beautiful fresh olives!



Here we are eating at a traditional Moroccan restaurant. Look at my dad's silly hat!

















Here is my brother entering the Medina, or the marketplace. The streets were so narrow and vendors were calling out at us to buy many of their Moroccan treasures.













An old man we ran into in the streets. Amazing.










Here is a woman washing her clothes in a small plaza.


















We had such an incredible time together. I was so sad to say goodbye to my family, but they told me that their trip to Spain was the best they had ever had. I'll never forget it.
