A tale of two city's

Monday- The weather being a bit overcast was an ideal day to check out Almeria, a large city dominated by the fort of Alcazaba. Unfortunately and disappointingly  Alcazaba is shut on Mondays as was the Cathedral  we tried to visit..

Indoor Market.
The large indoor food market was open and Casa Puga a Tapas bar first opened in 1870, here  we met up with Paul & El for lunch.

We had plenty of rain overnight with very strong winds. On Tuesday we woke to grey skies with showers. A drive east was our plan to visit Aguilas a port city to the east of Mojacar.

Not sure why this is sitting by the harbour.
