Get a Flight Credit worth up to The first CEA excursion took us to Ronda, where we met up with the Seville students. It was the first time that two CEA cities have done an excursion together. We had a delicious lunch together and the students enjoyed exchanging stories about thier experiences in Spain. During our tour, we explored the historic old town and learned a great deal about the city and it's people. We visited Casa de Don Bosco with it's glass roofed patio and stunning views (picture 2 below). Ronda is famous worldwide for its dramatic cliffs and outstanding vistas over the deep El Tajo gorge. One student favorite was the 18th century Puente Nuevo 'new' bridge that straddles the gorge, because of its unparalleled views out over the Serranía de Ronda mountains.
The following week, our Granada group traveled to Gibraltar and Nerja. We got pretty lucky with the weather. Since it was late October we had our doubts, but we had sunny skies and warm beach weather to enjoy. Students got a kick out of visiting the Barbary Macaque monkeys and checking out the caves in Gibraltar. Legend has it that the monkeys arrived through a fabled subterranean cave under the Straight of Gibraltar connecting North Africa to 'the Rock'. If it's there we couldn't find it! Afterwards, we returned to Nerja, located on the Costa del Sol, to relax in our amazing hotel with its incredible views of the sea.
