SurfGuru be aware of Kite surfing schools in Tarifa. They are plenty of them so just go and visit some. This are criteria, which helps you to find the right kiting school: 1) check the contract you would sign 2) read terms and conditions -- there should be garantie what you will get, if the weather is bad Those kite lessons are very expensive. You could get some voucher, if the Kite school don't get you money back 3) make clear, you need own Kite for the lesson. Some Schools tells you, you are in group lesson and you don't need own kite. If they gives you one, then they shortened the lesson. This what happened to us. We paid for intensive 3 days Kite lessons - 4 hours daily. The Dragon kite school tarifa ripped us off. There has been no wind at last day. They made 2 hours out of 4, no money back, no voucher. They promissed to have private lesson, but there has been 1 trainer for 2 people. Bulls***ting. So NO GO for http://www.dragonkiteschool.com It's a tourist trap.

Steven Nowak Em, You totally worked my body in those few days (in a good way), i probably lost 10lbs keeping up with you. That video still makes me laugh!! Plus us trying to buy things at the xmas market and neither of us speaking the language...thats half the fun. I would love to catch up with you over seas some time for a last blast before you decide to go home.....I will travel with you anytime. I had a great time with you and had to buy some new shoes when i got home, they were pretty worn out. We both probably put on 30 miles in a few days.......see you soon.

Adam I love this post Em. It's been a long time since I checked in. I am so incredibly jealous of your journey. I sense a job in your future working for "Lonely Planet". I hope you continue to have a great trip. Adam

Steve Thaks for taking me on your journey. You have a gift for story telling. I miss you here but am yet glad you are there. Peace.

Jay Um hello hello hello....don't tell anyone about PI!!! We have to keep this secret sacred mi amiga. It is to be cherished selfishly and not shared with Outsiders (and I'm not referring to the Dillon/Macchio variety). Capiche? Regardless I loved your blog regarding how I met my second favorite Michigander. Sorry my Special Forces buddy Grant, serving in Afghanistan at the moment, is from MI. You're in good company!!! It was truly a great experience and I look forward to doing it again soon hopefully. Hope you find some other people to pass movie quotes with but I'm certain they will not be as tall nor as cool as me;) Keep it real!!!
