Passing by the Plaza de la Consticucion in Cádiz. [Larger: 2448x1836]

First heading south toward San Fernando. [Crop/Zoom: 2028x1111]

After San Fernando, we are headed out on A-4. [Crop/Zoom: 1281x821]

[Crop/Zoom: 2312x1560]

[Crop/Zoom: 2291x1436]

[Crop/Zoom: 1576x1378]

[Crop/Zoom: 3987x1762]

[Crop/Zoom: 2327x1350]

I chose to stay on A-4 here, which led us to some slower going compared to AP-4. [Crop/Zoom: 2434x1462]

[Crop/Zoom: 2539x1180]

Yes, A-4 just becomes N-4. [Crop/Zoom: 484x566]

And there's a farmer cutout. [Larger: 2448x1836]

We go into towns. [Crop/Zoom: 2515x1128]

[Crop/Zoom: 560x809]

We decided to attempt to speed things up a bit by turning here. [Crop/Zoom: 1043x911]

[Crop/Zoom: 2224x1640]

[Crop/Zoom: 668x947]

To the tiny town of Lebrija. [Crop/Zoom: 1227x813]

A road with an A designation seemed like it would be faster, but it's not a superhighway either. [Crop/Zoom: 1595x1768]

Not sure how I ended up here but this means we're going through Puerto Sevilla. [Crop/Zoom: 1559x861]

[Crop/Zoom: 346x407]

Getting back to the highways finally. [Crop/Zoom: 2356x1401]

[Crop/Zoom: 2731x1975]

Now we are where we want to be - A-66 toward Méida. [Crop/Zoom: 2617x1106]

[Crop/Zoom: 2058x1234]

Great scenery as we pass through some mountains north of Sevilla. [Larger: 2448x1836]

[Crop/Zoom: 2292x2133]

[Crop/Zoom: 2361x1955]

All of these exit signs aren't interesting except for their high numbers (by U.S./miles standards). [Crop/Zoom: 1842x1329]

My third Spanish state, I believe. [Crop/Zoom: 2354x1559]

[Crop/Zoom: 2660x2015]

[Crop/Zoom: 1836x1357]

[Crop/Zoom: 4291x1739]

[Crop/Zoom: 1403x1195]

Wanted A-5 toward Bajajoz, ended up on A-5 toward Madrid. [Crop/Zoom: 2314x1151]

Easy enough to get off here and switch directions. [Crop/Zoom: 2422x1182]

And they have sheep. [Larger: 2448x1836]

[Crop/Zoom: 1352x1061]

Back on the right track. [Crop/Zoom: 2971x1201]

[Crop/Zoom: 1592x1372]

Getting tough taking pictures through a dirty windshield into the sunset... [Crop/Zoom: 1537x1126]

Finally a sign that mentions Portugal - would have helped back in Mérida. [Crop/Zoom: 2527x1208]

First one mentioning Lisboa. [Crop/Zoom: 4218x2275]

[Crop/Zoom: 2463x1117]

Disappointing picture of entering Portugal. [Crop/Zoom: 1372x1062]

Now it's A 6 most of the rest of the way. [Crop/Zoom: 2769x1254]

[Crop/Zoom: 3609x1554]

[Crop/Zoom: 3822x1741]

Back to toll roads. [Larger: 2448x1836]
