Final day in Jerez and packing

Another lazy morning before we walked over to the only barbershop we found that’s open on a Sunday. Brad is looking quite woolly and wanted to freshen up before we get home. The barber was excellent and the price was incredible: €21 for a haircut and beard trim.

We ambled our way back to the centre of old town for lunch. As we know from previous trips to Spain, Sundays are a popular day for families and friends to gather for lunch in cafés and tabancos. Today was no different. We couldn’t get a table at our first choice but found another and had tapas.

Got back to the hotel so Brad could have a nap and I started packing. Manulife has arranged a car to pick us up at 6:45 a.m. tomorrow to take us to the Seville airport. It’s about a 90 minute drive from here. We then fly to Lisbon and on to Toronto.

For our final dinner in Jerez we went to a classic tabanco for tapas. This particular one is so popular that you need to get there before it opens to be assured a table. We tried to go there for lunch today but no luck. It opens at 8:15 for dinner. We got there at five to eight and people were already lined up! We got a table and had a wonderful meal and I had a glass of sherry as a goodbye toast to Spain.

We’ve checked into our Air Portugal flights which are mid morning from Seville to Lisbon and then later tomorrow from Lisbon to Toronto, getting us home after 10 p.m tomorrow night. I’ll be home just in time to take Vinnie on his before bedtime walk. 🥰Read more
