Xerex deportivo f c
2018年2月12日, スペイン ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C
Back to see my Xerex football team. Once again they are top of the league, having had a disappointing season last year ( they only came sixth!) they won 2-1, so with Barnet also winning with a goal in the 93rd minute, it's been a good football weekend. Let's hope that the bees can make up some ground and scrape out of relegation again, and that the azulblancos (blue and whites) can get promoted again.もっと詳しく

The stadium is so empty!

旅行者 It's a 22,000 seater stadium and they get crowds of maybe 4 or 5 thousand, so yes most of the stadium is empty. Still plenty of noise though!

San miguel church (and sherry!)
2018年2月15日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
Yesterday we went to see the church of San Miguel. It is the biggest church in Jerez after the cathedral and parts date back to the fifteenth century. The walls and pillars are completely covered by carvings, but despite the size and Spanish love of heavy decoration, it is still very elegant. The churches are starting to prepare for Easter week, which is a huge thing here, and the council is beginning to build the stands and street seating for the many parades that will take place. In the evening we went to one of my favourite restaurants, just very basic but always good. I had a plate of olive oil soaked chips, with caramelised onions, chunks of jamon, with chorizo and fried eggs on top. Totally delicious and only 4 euros!もっと詳しく

Half way through
2018年2月16日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C
I can't believe that we have been here two weeks already so we are half way through! We just have one week left in Jerez, then we go to Chipiona for a week on the coast with Andy, Natalie, Finlay and Emily, and then back home. I hope the snows gone!

It was 21 degrees here yesterday and absolutely beautiful, and supposed be the same today, but next week is forecast to be cooler and cloudier, and the last week to be dull and showery. But the forecasts aren't very good so far off, it's Atlantic weather so it can change easily day by day. Hope it improves - on the beach in the rain doesn't sound so good!

Yesterday I went to see the church of Santiago. The last time we were here it was closed for restoration so I wanted see how it is now. It is very plain inside, unusual for a Spanish church, and quite elegant, the storks have returned to nest on the towers. Lying in the sun yesterday afternoon I thought a cloud was going over the sun but when I looked it was a huge flock of storks coming in from Africa, there must been at least a hundred of them.もっと詳しく

Carnival
2018年2月17日, スペイン ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
It's carnival weekend in jerez. Yesterday afternoon there was a kids band playing in the square and all the kids had a day off school. Each class was dressed in fancy dress - one was all chickens ( and the teachers as hens), one as angels etc. Today there is a parade later but already the streets are full of people in fancy dress - the Spanish just love dressing up!

Last night we went to have a five-course tasting meal in an expensive restaurant, each course accompanied by a different sherry chosen to go with the food. It was really good, and we discovered new sherrys that we didn't know. And they don't just give a tasting sample but a big wine glass full! By ten o'clock the restaurant was packed full - maybe the economy here isn't so bad for some people.

Just time for a little flamenco on the way home.もっと詳しく

Carnival
2018年2月18日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
Carnival yesterday, so everyone ( except us!) was out in fancy dress. We followed the procession through the city, and there were bands playing in the squares, all the bars were full and doing a roaring trade which went on through night. Surprisingly the city was very quite and empty when I went out to buy a paper this morning!もっと詳しく

Cathedral
2018年2月19日, スペイン ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C
Yesterday I went to revisit the cathedral. Built in the 1760s, it was a time when a lot of wealth flowed into Jerez. It is heavily decorated and quite bulky, and the ceilings are especially carved all over. The bell tower is separate from the main building and at the moment can't be seen at all as it is covered in scaffolding and sheeting for repair and restoration. The organ is new since the last time we were here, and although it looks and sounds like a traditional organ, in fact It is digital. The big pipes are at the back of the building, and the smaller ones at the front, which we found rather confusing as all the sound comes out of two huge speakers at the front. The keyboard has a big touch-screen with the music on it, and all the stops are all digital touch-screens too. It works well though and the sound is really good.

Like all the other churches here, the cathedral is getting ready for the huge Easter events, getting out and preparing the big heavy platforms that gangs of men will carry through the streets.もっと詳しく

More sherry
2018年2月20日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
Yesterday afternoon we went to a sherry tasting at one of the big bodegas, Lustau. When the financial crash hit Jerez, lots of the big name bodegas, such as Domecq, went bust but of course they still had warehouses full of maturing sherry. Lustau must have had cash resources so they bought up lots of the stock. Since then they have been marketing it in addition to their own. They seem to have been very good at selling it, presumably cheaply, to the big UK supermarkets, so if you buy own-brand sherry from Sainsbury's or Waitrose for instance, in little letters on the label on the back it will say "Lustau". My favourite sherry was Rio Viejo from Domecq, and for ages it hasn't been available in the Uk, so I've had to import it from Spain, and every time I asked a bar or restaurant here in Jerez what their house sherry was it was Rio Viejo. This time it appears on the the wine list and in the shops, and in the bodega at Lustau there were rows and rows and rows of barrels of it. At least now I know that are still making it, even if I will have to still buy it in from Spain!もっと詳しく

Leaving Jerez
2018年2月21日, スペイン ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
Tomorrow morning we leave Jerez to go to Chipiona. Really?? We've been here three weeks already? How can that be?? Well - just have to come back again next year.

We'll get a train to the airport first thing and pick up a hire car, drive it back into Jerez and get our bags and go to chipiona. Then we should have the afternoon and evening to get ready for Andy, Natalie, Finlay and Emily to arrive on Friday. We'll drive to the airport and meet them there.

There was a restaurant in Jerez we all liked before. It was in a small old sherry stockroom and had really good food. It has been closed and full of workmen all the time this time, but it reopened on Monday so we went yesterday. The food is still excellent and thankfully they have done it up keeping the atmosphere, and still with the original tiled floors and carved wood beam ceilings.もっと詳しく
