  • Morning beaches

    We made a home-schooling deal and decided we would work hard on Tuesdays and Fridays while Jacob also has to work and less on Wednesdays and Thursdays. This means we have the chance to go to the beach in the morning on Wednesdays. We headed down around 10 this morning…

  • Villa schooling

    Tuesday is always a busy day for Jacob – he doesn’t ever completely stop working so the kids have decided that Tuesday would be one of their main school days. It’s still vacation though so school doesn’t start before a quick dip in the pool. We can call it gym…

  • Piscina o playa?

    We have been soaking up the sun for two days now. To be honest, we haven’t done much else. We don’t have a car here, a first for us on vacation. We also have a pool in our backyard and a beach down the street so we aren’t sure if…

  • 2022

  • Wii love the beach

    Since we bailed a couple of days early on Morocco we needed to find a place in Spain so that we wouldn’t have to sleep in the car. Unfortunately our place in Seville wasn’t available any earlier than our original plan so we decided to book in to a nice…

  • Tangier old and new

    We are staying in a traditional house inside the kasbah for our time in Tangier. It doesn’t have an official address as it’s just in the alley way behind the public fountain. It’s set over 5 floors with essentially just a landing after each set of extremely narrow steep twisty…
