The hotel we stayed at was off a road at one end, leading towards a private beach in a small cove surrounded by cliffs.
You used to be able to reach the other end of the same road by following the cliff edge along the coastline.
Ring any bells?

Edit: the old town was situated at the opposite end of the road from our hotel.
Looong walk.

I'm excited, this is the first time I've been anywhere outside of the United States that isn't Mexico or Jamaica. I'm gonna look like a total tourist. It should be an amazing trip.

This is our itinerary:
7/3 - Depart from Southampton, England
7/6 - Gibraltar, UK
7/8 - Ajaccio, Corsica
7/9 - Cannes, France
7/10 - Barcelona, Spain
7/11 - Ibiza, Spain
7/12 - Malaga, Spain
7/14 - Lisbon, Portugal
7/15 - Vigo, Spain
7/17 - Arrive in Southampton, England

I know that a lot of MB-ians hail from various corners of the planet, so I was wondering if any of you have any advice or general commentary for me. Thanks!

Thanks for the input folks :-)

I'll try to compile a dozen or so of the best pics when I get back and post them here.
