Hotel Triton Benalmadena

... ill but it was cheap and filled us up. <br><br>We went to a place called Montys bar where they had a live act on we thought it was going to be really cheesy but it turned out to be ok. Steve the man who was playing was really good and played lots of old classics man rock songs so Ian liked it and I enjoyed it to. We then stagered back to our room around midnight a little drunk again. Looks like we are fitting right in with this holiday.

... only problem is that the room really smells of smoke its making me feel sick. We dumped our stuff Ian had a quick shower and off we went to look for something to do. Straight into an english bar Browns had a glass of wine and a beer for 4 euros ha ha then went on to another place. Where we are staying is a large area full of english bars and irish bars and we ended up in the smugglers irish bar taking shots of ...

... store, not as good as costco but still pretty good. i have been making soups with chicken and veggies and noodles, a nice salad, some spanish rice too. we've been enjoying drinking the spanish red wines here which are very cheap, we actually found a bottle at the local market for EUR1.00 which is roughly usd1.51; take that two buck chuck! it was definitely drinkable and cheaper than soda!! terry found a steal at the local super sol grocery market, eur.17 a can of beer ...

Today we had an excursion to the Caves of Nerja about an hour away on the bus. The little town on the water was cute and reminded me so much of Dubrovnik. We have free time to visit the little church and have an ice cream. Then we were off to the nearby caves which were fascinating but didn't learn much because the guide was doing double time with the tour speaking both French and English and he spoke mostly French even when he was speaking English it seemed.

... I had to go do some other things outside of the apartment so I left for a half an hour or so. When I came back, Mang´s door was open. I asked her if Jose had come home &#8211; he hadn&#8217;t. She had sat down (finally) and felt something in her back pocket. Her keys were in her pocket the whole time! Pretty ridiculous!<br><br>I need to run some errands since it is my only weekday off today, but hopefully I&#8217;ll be able to write more later!!!<br><br>Bye!

... the pool, cooking for ourselves, and watching MTV in German (South Park is hilarious, BTW) it was time for another adventure. <br>We ended up booking an actual group tour to Morocco for the day. We wanted to go check it out on our own, but it was actually cheaper to do it though the tour, so we got up at 5:45 in the morning on Thursday and got on the bus to Tarifa, where we would take the ferry over to Tangier. <br>Even though it´s only a 35 minute ferry ride, Tangier really is ...

Sylvie repart pour la suisse... heureusement, je ne suis pas seule à l'auberge et passe une bonne soirée avec d'autres voyageurs!! On boit un peu, beaucoup, trop de sangria... et je décide à 6h du matin de repousser mon départ de Malage au lundi... j'ai trouvé un prof d'espagnol que je prendrais bien avec moi pour un petit bout de chemin ,-)<br>

... de jeunesse ici (Picasso's corner), je vais pouvoir laisser mon vélo pendant que nous voyagerons à Grenade. Ambiance de ville-plage mais la vieille ville de Malaga convivial avec ses petites ruelles étroites et ses terrasses... je trouve un livre de Philippe Sauve "Siberia" que j'emprunte à l'auberge en leur promettant de le ramener lorsque je viendrai chercher mon vélo!<br>

... for lunch is an area called Chininitos where there are lots of chairs and tables set outside for a great seafood. <br>Teatro Romano is another nice place to visit, heading up to the Mount Gilfrano from there allows to see the whole city underneath. Amazing view of the Torre where the bullfighting occurs. <br>Once seeing the precaussions was over at night, we head out to Cordoba for our last day of visit in the Southern Spain.

... hooray.. I think) and hurry to find our employer to show them our hard work... oh... right.  Phone Suzanne.  Robert's away for the day.   We come into town after lunch and hope to spend the evening emailing and the next day gathering supplies and wandering the town (its nice to do your own shopping when you are the one doing the cooking.  Efforts by our hosts have been appreciated, but we don't know any recipes that involve just rice and avocado... and Dan needs meat)  Agreed to spend the ...
