Well, we completely enjoyed our last day in Spain. We took a bus out of Cadiz into a small town called Santa Maria. It was too cold to swim so we decided to roam around. We ended up at a bullfighting stadium where we got to take a free tour! It was so cool. There were mounted bullheads in the opening hall! I am used to deerheads but certainly not bulls. The stadium was really neat, and we got some fun pics there. The only thing better would have been being able to see a real fight; although, we were told they are quite gory. After the bullfighting stadium we found a true American staple -- Ben and Jerry's. God was certainly blessing us! :) This was our breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It was good to have a taste of home and wouldn't you know the other people there were Americans too! It was quite funny. The ice cream in Europe is better than ours in the states. It is much creamier, but we definitely have better flavors. Our next stop was the Santa Maria Castle, and guess what, the tour was free! It was definitely our day. Christopher Columbus had lived there for two years. Cool, huh? We also made it to the supermarket that day to stock up on Milka chocolate bars -- our new favorite. Nestle makes them, but we don't have them in America. We then took a water taxi back to the ship which ended a great day. Our only regret every time is that we don't have more time off the ship.

Do you think there is a museum anywhere with dogheads mounted on the wall? My kind of place.
