After crossing the border from Portugal to Spain, we visited a ham radio enthusiast in Ayamonte, who had contacted us. After a lovely afternoon, we left to Huelva, where we found a spot for the night at the Rio Tinto. On the way to Algeciras, where we will take a ferry to Morocco, we visited […]
We decided to take the route via Seville to get to the port of Algeciras. A little detour, but we were looking for good weather and warmer temperatures. Our first stop was at the village of Iznájar, which lies on a huge rocky outcrop overlooking a reservoir, where we could spend the night at the shore.

We had left the coast near Gibraltar and found a lonely place for the night somewhere. The next morning, we went to explore Castillo de Castellar.
