Leah from the hostel picked me and body bags up from Malaga airport. The flight was supremo. I had the full three (leather) seats to myself and saw some fantastic scenery. And I got another headache of a situation over my baggage on check-in, a potential 200 euros that I just managed to squeeze myself out of.

The twenty minute journey to the hostel was amazing. Leah spoke very little English and so I was forced to battle through with my very little Spanish, the first proper real conversation I've had in Español, which made great practice for the coming adventures.

So I'm sitting here in the Melting Pot Backpackers in Malaga, Spain. I'll be staying here for tonight with this bunch of nutter crazy Canadian 'dudes' and will be performing the BIG SURPRISE tomorrow morning. It was a last minute decision. And it's a better option. This way 'mis padres' will have the whole day to get over the shock.

I've just booked a bus from Malaga to Mollina for 8am tomorrow morning. Just over 4 euros. Not bad at all for an hours jaunt. And I've just sent one final email to the parentals confirming a Skype conversation at 9.30 tomorrow morning, their time. Spanish time. A Skype conversation with little old me all the way from New Zealand. I've also told them that I've just bought a webcam so this time they'll actually get to 'see' me. See me they will..
