dolmans of Antequera-drive

on the road at the early time of almost noon and it is 31 degrees according to the car. tried to rest the foot a bit and leave it open to the air in the am. also a good chance to catch up on posts. we are heading to the Dolmans of Antequerra. it's just over an hour away. intersting drive. Lots of olives in the fields and I think there may be almonds too. we saw almonds at the museum-Archaeological Dolmens of Antequera-. On getting closer to Antequerra we saw what looked like tour busses parked in the fields. We wondered what they were doing, but on closer inspection it was the buses for the workers in the fields who were harvesting onions. you could small the pungent smell of the onions and see the white bulbs. There were fields of corn and I think sunflowers being irrigated by the same types of overhead sprinklers they use at home. lots of beautiful rock formations all tend to be sloping up like a mesa and then huge drop offs along the sides. lots of caves. there are also towers on the tops of some of the high points. not sure which era they are from.. some are listed as Torre of ...on Google maps.もっと詳しく
