Fishing Town






On one of the days in Spain we went took a side trip to a little fishing town called Cudillero. This was awesome. We parked right next to the ocean and then walked through the town because as you will see in some of the pics, it is crazy to drive there. The houses are litteraly on top of each other and the roads are smaller then our one way roads, however, they are meant for two cars. It was an adventure driving anywhere there. John did a great job. Although driving home from there, we took a few side roads that ended up taking us around the side of a mountain that the roads were very curvy. Sofie got a little car sick and we had to stop at the side of the road for a little while. This town is set around the fishing industry. At around 4pm everyday is when the fishermen come back to shore. Everyone meets them down by the water to see the catch. The women then hang the fish from their balcony windows to dry them out. Life is really different there, but it seems calm and relaxed and yet they still get things done. The pics really say it all about this town. Enjoy!
