Malaga

We started our day in Cordoba and went for a walk in the morning down to the main square and to the Roman bridge again. We then headed to the train station for our last train of the trip to Malaga. This was a high-speed train with no stops on the way to our destination. Once in Malaga, we got a taxi to our hotel and got checked in. We were very happy with our hotel room was fantastic and even better was the rooftop pool and bar. We dropped our luggage and then decided to go for a walk into Malaga. We walked down to the waterfront and checked out the cruise ship ships that were in as well as all of the little markets along the harbor. We then went for a walk along Maguleta Beach and stop for a drink and some tapas along the way. Next, we decided to go over to the Alcazaba and walk up so that we can get some nice views of the city and the water. It was pretty good hike up and we went most of the way, but we still got great views where we stopped after that we headed back to our hotel to get cleaned up for dinner.

Before going for dinner, we decided to check out the rooftop bar, and I had a very good Barcelona spritz, which I could add to my rotation of spritz‘s back at home. The view was great of the harbour and we enjoyed the sunset there and then headed into town for some tapas at a good restaurant called Lola‘s.

The next day, we decided to have a down day and and made it a pool day at our rooftop pool. We enjoyed the really good breakfast at the hotel and then headed up to the pool and found a spot to kind of camp out for most of the morning and afternoon. At about three, we decided to get a little bite to eat to hold us over till dinner and then we went for a walk down to the other side of the harbour to see San Andreas Beach. Then it was back to our hotel where we had a little rest before we headed out to dinner. We had another good dinner this time at a place called Kraken and we really enjoyed our down day in Malaga.

At the end of the day, we decided we would do the same thing all over again the next day. We are gearing up for our last big push in Barcelona, where we head to on Wednesday for our last four days in Spain.
