Cadiz, Puerto de Santa Maria and Gibraltar/La Linea

It's been an exciting couple of days. After our adventures in Cadiz Carmela and I met up with Manu in El Puerto de Santa María, which is just across the bay. He took us to Rota, a naval base where he flies helicopters with the Spanish Navy. Heck yes, we got to sit in the helicopters! Rota is actually an American base, so we were surrounded by a bunch of army brats. It's weird how you can live in another country and still spend all your time on American soil.
After Carmela's delicious pasta, Manu took us out dancing. So much fun! It was strange how the Spaniards didn't dance as much as we did. Manu says that Spaniah people don't really dance, but I think that's a croc.
We stayed an extra day in El Puerto because we missed the bus to Gibraltar. We finally made it to La Linea (Spanish city adjacent to Gibraltar) yesterday and met up with John, who had been taking full advantage of the long Easter weekend. After some tapas and tinto de verano, we hunkered for the night.
Today, John took us for a full English breakfast in Gibraltar. Yum! We walkwr halfway up the rock and saw the Macaques. After that, I made dinner and Carmela and I got ice cream in el centro. Pretty good Easter, if I do say so myself.
Of to Granada tomorrow!
