Camping Huelva

This past weekend we took our 5th camping trip while being stationed here in Spain.  We love to camp in October and May.  The weather is great and the sites are empty!

Drew and Claire really are "true campers"!  Drew is at the age now where Andy can give him jobs to help set up camp.  AND with all the fresh air everyday they sleep till AFTER 8am!! 

Camping in Spain is really different compared to the states.  A few are: you can't have a fire at night, your neighbor is about 10ft from you, and people here love crowds when they camp!  There are a lot of plusses though.. the sites are beyond clean, usually there's an awesome pool, and their is a resturant on the camp site!  We still bring all of our food and cook at our site:)

Home sweet home!  This year I packed some decorative red lights.  Andy said it made our camp site look like a chinese bazar.  I thought it was FUN and probably our new tradition!  It also kept any new neighbors away!

Our pool:)

One day we traveled a little over and hour away to Aracena.  The town is known for it's cave that has several lakes inside it!  We were'nt alwoed to take photos, however it was awesome.  Many movies have actually been filmed in it.

In the town center there is a water way that circulates water down a small hill.

Here the children make boats and float them down the stream!

Drew picked up his first sling shot at a small store. Andy had to test it out to make sure it worked..

Quick learner...

Meanwhile... Claire was busy applying chap stick...

A little bit more..

BEAUTIFUL!

We then jumped on a train and road to the top of the town to see a castle!

Evening were great.  Spanish cheese, fresh bread, and some spanish wine. 

Way more fun then going to bed!

The mornings were relaxing.. no laundry, dishes..cleaning...

We had a great time and look forward to our next adventure camping in May!
