I have really enjoyed being in Cadaques. It´s unlike anyplace I´ve been to, the mountains, the cute little white houses that line the shore and the most amazing blue water. The harbor is full of small sailboats (mostly with big french flags on them), and everyone drives mopeds arounds. It use to be an old fishing village but now is a summer place for wealthy people to come to. There are a lot of big houses that are still boarded up and i´m sure in the summer the harbor is full of yachts. I´m glad we´re here on the off season, it´s not too crowded yet. It´s too cold though to swim and be in a bathing suit which I was looking forward to.
My dad kayaked around the harbor while my mother and I walked the whole village. It´s nice to be in such a small village that you can walk the entire thing without being tired. The beaches are made up of rocks and small stones so there isn´t much sand. There is a lot of natural slate that makes great natural staircases all along the shore so you can climb all around the water edge without being in the water. There is only one small church that everyone goes to. Inside the alter is so ornately decorated I would have never expected that this small village would have such a glorious church, but the catholic church is what everyone here believes in and probably gives so much money to. It´s so quite here expect the church bells and when theres a futbol match on...
I´m eating amazing seafood and drinking the best sangria while on the mediterranean, perfect.
