Arrived
2 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ 🌙 14 °C
After leaving home at 3,30 (a.m. ugh!) All the arrangements worked really well. We choose to fly to Jerez via Barcelona rather Madrid and that's so much better. , and arrived at the apartment about 3.30 (only 12 hours) in time to sit in the sun for a bit. Coming into Jerez in the taxi now feels like coming home. Czytaj więcej

Busy first day
3 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
First day here we always have to go and have churros and chocolate for breakfast followed by a trip to the Market and a big supermarket shop to stock up on essentials. In the fish market we chose an enormous slab of local wild tuna for dinner tonight.
As we were exhausted from carrying all the shopping home, despite having a shopping trolley, we decided to treat ourselves to lunch in the sun in the little square behind the apartment.
This year it is particularly warm for February - last night we could still sit out on our roof terrace at 6.30 enjoying our first sherry.
This afternoon Tim went on the crucial hunt for Seville oranges still on the tree for us to bring home to make marmalade. He found a fine crop in front of the Alcazar. Czytaj więcej

The tuna steak last night was fantastic. Tuna is caught all along the coast from Gibraltar up to Cadiz, so its fresh and wonderful! I especially love Mojama, which is very thin slices of dried cured tuna in olive oil, and which I've never seen at home.

Today I went out early (ish!) To get a Sunday paper. When we first started to come here, one of the street kiosks had english papers, but since the pandemic it closed so now I have to put up with the "diario de jerez" , which is mostly about local politics, which I dont understand, and local football, which I do. The little local shop just round the corner has a great range of foods, including lovely sweet juicy oranges. So it's great to squeeze fresh orange juice for breakfast, but sadly my two helpful orange squeezers are off skiing jn Italy!

Lunch in a popular square in the sun , in a restaurant which we have been going to for years, and it's still excellent!

After, a bus out to the football stadium and an pleasant evening watching my team play and win ( just like watching Barnet! ) Czytaj więcej

A quiet day
5 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
We had intended to spend a day sitting in the sun today not doing much, but when we woke up we found that clouds had rolled in overnight and it was dull and grey. Also there was a quite a chilly breeze. Eventually the sun came out around lunchtime and it got warmer in the sunshine. Looking forward I think its going to be like this for a few days, then maybe a bit of rain early next week. I think I'll use the time to go for a walk around the city tomorrow and maybe drop into the museum to see some of my favourite things there. Czytaj więcej

Museum
6 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Well, I was wrong ! Despite a forecast of mist or fog, this morning was clear blue skies, sunshine and even hot.

So my walk around the city was really nice, I love wandering through the narrow winding medieval streets, windows open, the sound of flamenco singing from a room somewhere.

The museum is still really good, small but covering all of jerez history from prehistoric, roman, visigoth, Islamic and Christian periods.

Well worth a walk in the sunshine! Czytaj więcej

El Puerto de Santa Maria
7 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
After dinner out last night we paid a quick visit to the flamenco bar to check it's still operating - which it is and it wasn't even as crowded as usual. We caught the last 10 mins of the performance and it was as thrilling as always.

Today we took our first trip out of JEREZ, to one of the other sherry towns - El Puerto de Santa Maria. Its a very easy journey just 10 mins on the local train but, as so often in Spanish towns, the station is on the edge so it's quite a walk to the centre. The main purpose of the visit was to buy a bottle of one of our favourite sherries from the bodega as its difficult to find anywhere else. Also to have lunch at the restaurant run by a daughter from the bodega. It was delicious as always.

El Puerto is on the mouth of the river Guadelete, and the bodega and restaurant are on the banks of the river, so a great place to sit in the sun for lunch. As the name suggests it was a main port, where lots of the riches from the Spanish colonies came ashore, and from which sherry came down from jerez and shipped all over the world. Today its port is mostly unused, and the town is looking very down at heal. Czytaj więcej

Rain!
9 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ 🌬 17 °C
We have been quite lucky with the weather since we arrived. It has been dry , warm and sunny enough to sit on the terrace in T shirts each afternoon. Until yesterday. Yesterday was heavy cloud all day and in the evening the rain and strong winds started and continued until lunchtime today. We managed to get the laundry mostly dry before the rain started (no tumble driers here, just washing lines and airers) and have not been out all day today.
Luckily the weather forecast was accurate for once and we prepared by cooking a big fabada stew for two days - chorizo, morcilla (black pudding) and beans cooked in wine. They forecast showers over the next three days but not like the downpour we have had. We are really hoping it improves next week whilst Pete is here - he caught a poor week last year. Czytaj więcej

Sunday again, rain again!
11 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ 🌧 17 °C
I had thought I may go to watch jerez's non-league team play, Jerez industrial, but the stadium is way over on the other side of the city, its uncovered, and its been raining all day again, so I'm staying in! Yesterday we went to the fish market, which is incredible and full of all kinds of fish we never get at home, so today we're cooking white prawns from huelva, and the big clams that finlay loves ( sorry finlay!)

This morning I went to the cathedral with lynette., she went to mass, but I just wanted to remind myself what it looked like. They also have two paintings that i would like to see, a madona and child by murillo and the other by zurbaran of the young Mary sleeping. (Both local artists from andulcia). Sadly they are both in the vestry and this is closed to the public during mass so I didn't get to see them. They have a poster showing the zurbaran outside, so I had to make do with that.

The biggest excitement of yesterday was the arrival of an oven! The one disappointment of this apartment was that it had no oven just a hob. We mentioned this to Javier, the owner, when we arrived and he said he would get one. Lo and behold he brought an IKEA oven and installed it so today we are roasting vegetables to go with the seafood. He really is a good host.

So tonight's dinner is white prawns, clams, roasted peppers, aubergines and garlic, and papas alinadas - potatoes in olive oil and sherry vinegar . Czytaj więcej

Hi Tim, apart from the weather it sounds as if you are enjoying all the culinary delights of the area. So sorry to hear about the rain but I say that with a wry smile because we have certainly had more than our fair share since you flew to a warmer clime!!!! Enjoy the rest of your trip. Eve [Eve]

End of the rain?
13 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
The rain continued yesterday up until lunchtime when we went to the airport to meet Pete. Having left Zurich at 7.00am he was pretty exhausted so we ate in last night - a selection of tapas including prawns and chistorra.

This morning remained cloudy but not raining!. Pete went for a wander accompanied only by a map and managed to find his way home. Still cloudy but warm so we had lunch outside at Gabriela's, eating too much. By the time we got home the sun was shining and we spent the afternoon on the roof terrace. Could this be the start of a spell of good weather? Fingers crossed. Czytaj więcej

Hake for dinner
14 lutego, Hiszpania ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C
Down to the market square this morning for churros and chocolate in the sunshine, followed by a cruise through the fish market to pick up something for dinner. We chose a nice big hake, that i can bake (new oven!) With garlic, parsley and fino.

Excellent ! I don't know why hake isn't popular at home- the Spanish, like me, love it, and mostly it seems to come from cornish waters. Czytaj więcej
