ANDALUCIA BY WHEELCHAIR -- part 7

ANDALUCIA BY WHEELCHAIR To get a true taste of Andalucia, jump in the rental car and follow any one of the dozens of looping trails that take you through the pueblos blancos, the white cities so named because of the postcard-perfect whitewashed walls. Every guidebook has a map, so don’t worry if you get lost. Getting lost takes you off the beaten track to towns devoid of tourists but rich in local flavor with traditional casas with iron windows overflowing with fresh flowers. Sample fresh game meat, jamon, queso and gazpacho washed down with sherry or fino from nearby Jerez. Most white towns are terraced, with the streets between one level or the other too steep for wheelers. But be patient and drive around the charming towns until you find the perfect plaza to park in and roll out among the tiny sun drenched outdoor cafes. Favorite pueblos blancos include: TOMORROW -- Zahara de la Sierra, Istan & Guacin
