Lenny's Heading South, not a Clue Where.

[Russell's Dad]

This place is brilliant. Bus from the camperstop to Jerez drops you nearby. Who knew sherry was so good!

Really pleased with the new Ducato so smooth & quiet. What was really noticeable today was the aircon, van had been sitting in 34° full sun so a lot hotter, started the engine and within 30 seconds ice cold air coming out the vents.
Never known aircon to work that quick.

Must be that new R1234yf

That had me scratching my head......this provided a quick overview. Amazing what can be learnt on a motorhome forum.

Went to a [supposedly] tutored sherry tasting many years ago in Edinburgh . Been visiting the area ever since . Though I go to El Puerto and Sanlucar mostly

I think you'll be surprised by how much you enjoy the horse show.
It'll be fabulous

How can it be - no engines.

Exactly!
That's probably one of the reasons why Mi wants go there.

How can it be - no engines

But lots of horse power

 

[Jane And Rog]

Now at the Auto Camper stop at Jerez de la Frontera.
Booked tickets for some horse show tomorrow, horse dancing and dressage or something.
I think I'll take a pillow so I can get some kip.

The horse thing kept the boss happy, now if I could have found some wet paint to watch dry that would have been more interesting.
We did at least get front row seats at old fogie prices.

I went to the loo in the interval and missed the interesting bit - tractor raking the sand.

Note to self:
Only come to Jerez if there is a Moto GP on.

A couple of pics then lunch got in the way.

Did you get any sh*t for your rhubarb Lenny?

I suppose it's not safe to have pork pink!

Yes, perfectly safe these days thanks to the sanitary controls on the animals. At least in Europe it is.

 

[Barriesimpson]

You might not be so keen to eat it if you saw where most of it comes from.

Nope, Iberian pork is free range and eats naturally in the 'dehesas' of the Spanish countryside. They mostly eat acorns which gives the meat the exclusive taste that it has. If you have never tried it you haven't lived.

 

[Barriesimpson]

Was going to walk into town for a meal but couldn't be arsed so it was burger an chips. Spainish burgers are naff after Frence Steak Haché.
