This is the first time we have been at a camp site with loads of Brits. They were the retired, wintering over in their motor homes contingent! They had a wealth of experience, most had just come down through Portugal, so we got loads of useful tips.
El Rocio is the strangest place, it looks like a scene from a wild west western, in fact a lot of the 'spagetti westerns' were filmed here. There is sand everywhere, blown in from the dunes and they have horse rails all down the main street.
In this picture, I was pretending to 'go for my gun'. But it doesn't have quite the right impact with the dogs in tow!
The horses everywhere completed the wild west image!
Most of the park was off limits except by special tours in 4x4s. However, we found a little trail we could walk and saw a wild boar! More than what most people saw in the interior of the park! It was very exciting, the only down side was that Ginny chased it off before we could photograph it!
The park is best visited in the Spring or Autumn when thousands of birds including flamingos migrate through.
