January 24, 2022,Schnell mal von Agua Amarga nach Carboneras ❄🌬

Unfortunately we are not in Agua Amarga in Mexico (it's great weather there today ☀️👌) but in Agua Amarga in Andalusia of the same name 😬. So today we thought back and forth whether we should cycle or not with the wind and the dark clouds in the sky.

January 15, 2023,🌟 Radtour nach Carboneras und zum Torreón de Mesa Roldán

The bike tour is not without effort, but it leads to the friendly coastal town of Carboneras with wonderful views. The beach promenade is now finished and well done.

There are plenty of restaurants on the beach, but today we preferred to visit another tapas bar in the center of town, which we remembered well from last year.
