Travels in Andalucia - Visiting El Torcal and Ronda #34
April 07, 2019 by Mothership Adrift Travel and Sailing | Language: EN Play Time: 00:14:44 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
We return to our life on the boat in Spain and do our bit for the VHF cruisers net before we even managed to unpack. After struggling to be healthy through “dry January”, we go on a road trip around Andalucia in Spain.
The VHF net is a great way to connect with your local boat community and a good way to help fellow cruisers out as well as benefitting yourself.
Our first stop on our road trip was El Torcal in Antequera, an area of strange shaped limestone rocks that were previously covered by water and then rose up due to disruption o the seabed and then the wind and rain eroded them away to form these shapes. We did a fourty five minute walk around the rocks.
We stayed the night in an interesting mountain hotel full of stuffed animal heads. The next day we drove to Ronda where we admired the Puente Nuevo ‘New bridge’ and then visited the largest Bullring in the world ( measured by the ‘rueda’ – ring and not the amount of people that can be seated )
The children absorbed the information and found ways to understand and relive the experience.

Mothership Adrift Travel and Sailing
We're a UK family who have saved over many years to live the dream of travelling the world with our kids. We sold our belongings, closed our business and rented our house to buy a 20 year old sailboat . We want to show the kids that there is a bigger world out there and to appreciate the simple things in life, things that you find in the sea, the woods, up mountains, along the beach , the sky and the stars. Our dream of cruising and exploring the world's oceans is matched with a desire to live a more off-grid and sustainable lifestyle. A background as RYA instructors, flotilla skippers and RNLI crew only partly prepared us for the challenges of a live-aboard life! From buying a boat to homeschooling the kids, from cooking on a budget to making money while we travel, from sailboat maintenance to visiting amazing places - join our journey and share in our world adventure, as well as the challenges of family life, through our series of video blogs.
