Ely and the Fens



We finally made it to Ely Cathedral , which was amazing. Especially as we coincided with the end of term for Kings College which meant there was some beautiful singing from the college choir.

Laguna Dulce

Making our way back towards Malaga we visited the Laguna Dulce.

Tarifa and La Janda

We searched around Tarifa and evenyually found the Hostal Margarita.

Spain in January 2010

A last minute decision saw us flying to Malaga for a short break in Andulacia.

Heading South and home

Merja Zerga and Marsh Owls

While we stood around and looked for owls we were approached by a local lad complete with bird books and promise of sites. After standing round and eventually seeing one fly over in the dark we agree to meet up next day and go round the other side of the marsh where he knew Marsh Owls were.

We met a young man who ferried us round a breach in the road and then walked round an island but no luck with owls. The trip back was notable for the oar breaking in mid stream and the boat careering through the breach out of control.

Up the Coast

After we landed and sorted out the minibus, we headed north along the coast towards Essouria.
