Ronda - driving in Spain





Driving in Spain is not for the feint of heart!

It wasn't bad once we got out of Seville, but getting out was not easy. Our GPS navigator is marginally useful. Road signs in Spain are not all they could be.

Ronda is a little town on a cliff. With very narrow streets. The navigator was pretty much useless there as the streets are narrower than the resolution of the GPS.

We stayed at a VERY swanky hotel, that I paid for! It had a terrific view. We went down and walked across the gorge. Hemmingway mentions it in "For Whom the Bell Tolls." It's where the rebels executed people. Then they just fell off the bridge -- no body problems.

It was just lovely. Now we're going on to Granada.
