Avenida Carlota Alessandri, 74 Torremolinos, Costa del Sol, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands, 29620, 34-95-2050009
We left beautiful, romantic Seville early in the morning and later arrived in Torremolinos. My first impression of the place: I like the beach, but this place is super touristy; where are the Spaniards?! However, there is an upside to most touristy places: English! It was fun speaking Spanish, and I was definitely improving, but this was a really nice break.
We spent most of our time in Torremolinos at the beach. Our hotel, Hotel Lloyd, was only about a three to five minute walk away f...
... she is from), Paris, and London. I really want to see all of those places.
Afterwords myself, Kate, Kirsten, Christina, and Rebecka walked together to Plaza de la Merced. On the way we encountered a giant Christmas bell and a Christmas tree decoration. Later, we had an interesting time at Plaza de la Merced with the people hanging out trying to sell us hashish.
The one time where I really missed American ...
... girlfriend, Maria. Alex reminds me of my high school Spanish teacher. They got some mojitos at a bar but they did not like them so Alex went back in and bought a beer. Maria asked the bartender about the mojitos and why they taste different and the bartender told her that they mixed it with a different kind of soda because they didn’t have any more of the usual kind. So there we were standing in the street drinking and he was ...
Málaga, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands skivail89... ill but it was cheap and filled us up.
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.
... the ferry over to Algeciras it only took an hour and half and then we where in spain, I felt a huge weight lift as now we can relax a little. In morroco you are always on edge always watching and not trusting people that it makes you a little crazy. So we went and got our bus tickets and we waited in a little bus station cafe and had our first taste of Spanish food. Ian had some paella and I had some meatballs ...
Torremolinos, Andalusia, Spain and Canary Islands traceybelle... to spark and caught on fire, nothing that needed the assistance of the local fire department however. i like to cook, he likes my cooking and he does the dishes so it works.
cooking in a kitchen without an oven is interesting, it takes some planning to think about what can easily be made. we brought a few items with us from london like spices and wheatabix (similar to shredded wheat, you eat it with hot milk) for our brekkie, i like to make spanish tortilla ...
... well, I don´t think they really ride camels anymore in the city of Tangier anyway. After a couple more bus photos, it was back on the ferry to Spain.
All in all, here´s the verdict on Tangier. It is definitely a changing city, filled with construction of new hotels and lots of places trying to spruce up their looks. I wish we could have spent more time to actually see the real Morocco, instead of getting hustled around on the tour bus, but it was worth it none the less ...
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 ,-)
After breakfast and nice stroll on the beach, we head out to see the next city in the list which was Malaga. Malaga is very big compare to its size on the map :)
The trick is to head out to the old part of town to see the actions. Lots of architectures are dated back few years.
Cathedral as like the other places, is a must see in the old city. Small cobble stone alleys make it very nice and easy for walk.
The best ...
... liberal with their beach apparel than at your community swimming pool. I could have done just fine without that cultural exchange, especially when it dealt with women over 60. For supper that night we ate at an Italian restaurant, which we finally ended up choosing because it smelled the best out of all the restaurants we'd walked by. The food was good, but I think that Barry White's "Can't get enough of ...
