Cadiz Holiday is A Once in a Lifetime Vacation

Friday, October 16th, 2009

I am a fun of Greek Mythology characters from Zeus, Agamemnon to Achilles…. and of course Hercules. And old whispers that persist through time had told that Cadiz was founded by Hercules. So of course instantly… I save, (grin) not packed my bag yet, for the big event of visiting the city founded by my favorite Hercules.

Travel to Cadiz Spain is not easy endeavor mind you; I have to skip a couple of night out, well got to be honest, and skip three years of spending on nightlife and even football games. My travel to Spain is a gift and a product of hard labor and ingenuity. I did not expect much but I found more than i could ever imagine. So the legendary city founded by Achilles is not a mere myth and a product of imagination.

It has made my travel to Spain magical, meaningful and enjoyable. From th architecture hopping and seeing to the garden walk and tower visits; everything has its own place. Mind you I stayed more than two weeks and I have not visited ALL of the tourist destination and also the least trodden path.

The island is surrounded by water thus rooms with a sea view are plenty. You will fall asleep with the sound of the soft waves, depending on the weather or you will witness the uneasy rushing of the waves as if impatient about something. Most of the time, the moon will accompany me in my Cadiz Spain travel up until before I close my eyes.

Whew, I am lucky to have someone to hold hands with to savor the lover’s atmosphere in Cadiz. Travel to Spain is not a mere encounter with an ordinary place but it goes beyond the word magnificent.

The soft and friendly laughing banters of the locals together with the music that plays usually add just the perfect flavor of you Cadiz Spain travel.
