      Trail from Santiponce to Guillena is totally underwater. as was local road. Only option was highway that you can't walk on. Nice man gave us ride around for 15 euros.

      I always carry a string bag with me when traveling. Before heading to the airport, I load everything I need to keep with me in it and place in in the top of my backpack. Makes it very easy to pull out in the rare instance they run out of overhead...

      I use this drawstring sack to hold my after-walking-slides when they are in my pack....the bag then gets taken to the shower and the clothes washing sink....and finally to the mercado/tienda. Occasionally I wish for a better handle on it when it...
