More of Espana!!

April 8

This was a day for local sights and experiences. First it was a trip to the gypsy market here in Rota that happens every Wednesday morning. The 9 of us walked down to the market, where Lanny and Stacey were surprised by the crowds. Since it is Spring Break here, there were way more people than usual (so they said). SO it was a little tricky keeping track of the 5 kiddos....and your purse!!! Bethie was typically enthralled with the snails!!!




Later we went to a local restaurant which is a favorite of the American military. We loved it!! The atmoshpere and food were the best so far!! It is called Las Tinajas (pronounced 'ten-a-haus"). The skewers were fantastic chicken and pork tenderloin ka-bobs!! Such great presentation!!! So much yummy food!! It required an afternoon siesta for Monty and Lanny and a bike ride down to the beach along the pasaeo for me. (No photos of that....I was too busy pedaling the four miles or so!!)
