Tuesday

Last night we went to the posh restaurant that Andy and Natalie had been to the night before and indulged in some really good food and a series of fine sherries, most of which we hadn't tried before. Slept well last night! This morning we walked over to the archaeological museum, which I love going to every time we come here. It's quite small but well laid out and has artefacts from every period of Jerez history, from stone-age, Roman, Visigoths, Islamic and Christian periods. Last year a large square in the middle of the city was dug up and being renovated, and this year there lots of items on display in the museum that had been in the building work, especially some very fine Islamic period pottery. On the way home afterwards we passed one of the sherry bodegas and saw that they had put tables out in the sunshine in their courtyard and were running it as a tapas restaurant. We couldn't resist, and the food was as good as last night so a real find!Read more
