12/24/2024 Merry Christmas from Cadiz, Spain

Cadiz cathedral at night!

Greetings from beautiful and sunny Cadiz, Spain!

Team C&K made the long trip from outside London to Cadiz successfully, flying into Madrid and picking up the lease car.

The city of Cadiz

Let’s take a tour of old town Cadiz, all decorated for Christmas. Before we start a few words about Cadiz so you can frame the pictures in your mind.

Cadiz is a very old city, founded by Phoenicians and has had many, many lives. The current city was built in the late 1800’s and has very narrow streets and buildings 3-5 stories high. The city is mainly residential and is very busy all the time.

Cadiz also has developed a busy tourism business with beaches, cruise ships and shopping. It’s quite the happening city😎

Cadiz goes all out for the holidays and believe me, it’s a show. Let’s take a tour!

Walking the streets, it’s packed!

Every street is decorated, quite a few streets are pedestrian only and are filled with shops.
Massive crowds
This is Plaza de San Juan de Dios. Note the coats, it 58 degrees.

That’s it from Cadiz, 28,500 on the steps yesterday 👊 Good thing I know where the hydration stations are!

Merry Christmas to you and your family and friends!
