Málaga family visit

A warm day, 28C sunny but hazy, with breakfast made and consumed as people rose from a long night's sleep. At midday, apart from Clare, who wanted to stay and rest, we took the train to Malaga for few hours sight seeing. On the way there we booked a table at Restaurant La Esquinita at the bottom of the hill, for my birthday lunch tomorrow.

In Malaga we started with the Mercado Atarazanas, and lunch at a street cafe nearby, then a walk through back streets to the Plaza de la Constitucion, and thence to the Palmeria de las Sorpresas. Having walked the entire length, we retraced our steps back to the Alameda station and returned to Los Boliches. Owain and I spent time together here back in 2018, Kath Anto and Rhiannon have spent a few nights here on their way to another destination, so don't know the city centre well, and were trying to remember where they stayed as we wandered through back streets. It was lovely to be out and about with my offspring sharing a little of the untiring pleasure this city gives me.

Clare prepared for us a splendid fish supper, and after eating together, we sat around outdoors on the patio, enjoying  warm and comforting night air, drinking wine and telling stories until late. A time to treasure..
