Hunting for cows

Friday morning we had breakfast (Garry for the third time that day, we had coffee and buns at the coffee shop before anyone else was up and cereal at the apartment) with the Harders and Andrew, Steve's mentor, and his wife at a restaurant. I tried the cheese and onion sandwich. It was on toast with olive oil. Afterwards Garry and I took the car for a ride to find farmland and cows, the highlight of any trip for Garry.

We headed out on the highway and decided to buy a map, which showed we were on the way to Gibraltar.















We ended up parking and eating lunch there, but could not go out to the rock since we had not brought our passports for this drive. However the sight of it coming out of the fog was worth the drive.












Of course, then we were off to get inland and find farms.

We found cork trees

The only cows we found were red beef cows

That white stuff is cotton blowing around after harvest

Cow path, maybe?

Garry really wanted to find out what kind of trees these were, but the
 had been harvested already..
Not the tall one, but he'd like to find out what it  is too,

A plowed field

An estate/hotel barn with cows

We also saw orange and olive trees. Garry picked a couple wild oranges along the road but they were too sour to eat. We went through a few small towns and managed to get back to the highway with the help of the map and get back to Migas long before dark.

Almost sunset

We walked up to see the bullfighting ring before eating dinner with Jo and the boys.They do still have bullfights there.
