Europe 2021: Malaga

Europe 2021:

Malaga

I get yelled at on occasion by the three people that read this blog for not finishing these travel series in a timely manner, so I'm going to glide through the last few stops on our Spain, etc. trip from last fall with mostly just pictures.

We spent nearly a week in Malaga near the tail end of our trip. We got a place on the beach and mostly hung out there or in the area near the condo. It was relaxing to just chill for the most part.

The condo was good. There was a restaurant connected to the building that was open very late, and we found that we actually enjoyed the beachside dining instead of venturing out every night (although we did that too).    

Side note - the beach we were on did turn out to be a nude beach. That's not uncommon in Europe at all, and it sounds like a fun time, but my limited experience has been that the folks you wouldn't mind being nude are never nude, and the ones you really would prefer not be, are.

As I mentioned, the Malibu Bar (I think that's what it was called) was a place we frequented due to it's proximity (literally down the stairs) and decent food. 

They had real-live condiments - on the table!

The Costa del Sol is famous for an abundance of great golf courses, and we found the time to play. 

I didn't get a lot of birdies, but some almost got me.

One evening we decided to charter a sailboat. We called around and ended up taking a really nice 50 foot boat out for an evening cruise. The sunset was awesome and the captain and mate kept us drinking and eating. The captain spoke no English, but the mate was entertaining and we had a great time.

After a week of recharging on the coast, we headed north on the final legs of our adventure.
