Not far from Barcelona is Sant Sadurni d'Anoia, the capital of Spanish Cava. Here are anout 100 bubbly wineries. Cordoniu is the oldest bubbly producer of Spain. The winery exists since 1551 and since 1872 they produce cava for selling. The underground cellars are enormous, as far as I remember the tourguide talked from 1000m underground. And there are several levels of that. The cava they serve and sell is excellent!

Valencia is also worth a visit. We spend one day in this city and admired the flair and the beautiful buildings. At the bus station we find a pup called "Baden-Baden" and as a treet they serve a chilled Paulaner Weissbier!

Now our tour leads us through the hinterland. It's always the question: Will we fit through this tunnel or not?

At the Puerto de la Ragua we are at an altitude of 2000 m. Somewhen the medial strip of the road dissapears and the side bars as well. Driving becomes difficult when there is also fog and rain.

Now the road leads through the Alpujarras and Trevelez is not far. There is still snow at the summits of the Sierra Nevada. Of course we have to buy a ham in Trevelez, Ricardo helps to choose.
