Cordoba mas buena

CORDOBA!!!! What can we say?? We both agree that it is the best part of our trip so far. Although getting into town was a bit of a pain in the hoohaa because i had to drive this enormous vehicle through streets the size of a small escalator. Rob was extremely patient, as usual, and got out of the car and directed me to backout of a dead end one way street and make a hairpin turn while a line of extra small (smart) cars waited and honked their tiny horns. I sweated through my shirt... BUT, it was so worthwhile as the city is absolutely amazing. We spent one entire day not doing anything but eating way too much tapas while sitting in the sun on the corner of a very small street and having beers. It was a great day off from either driving or sightseeing.


We are soooo off of the Spanish timetable of eating and going out. People here do not have dinner until 10pm, and Rob and I have been showing up at restaurants around 7pm like "where's the food and people?" and everyone is till pretty much on siesta time. So tonight we booked a restaurant for 9PM!!! We are almost cool...
