Now I’m in Malaga and enjoying the city. My new friend Raul has offered me his apartment here so I’ll be taking a couple of days to visit museums and seeing the sights before heading off to Estapona.

Raul’s apartment
I got up late after the night with Brendan. Found a bread shop and had pate and tea. Showered and carried bike and panniers downstairs and probably needed another shower by then! Checked out at 12 and went to find Raul’s apartment. Then had a rest on the beach before cycling along to end of beach where I found a German swingers van???

Back to the apartment to meet Mari for the keys but she was about 40 minutes late so I had a beer in the cafe under apartments. She apologised and we kissed before she helped carry bags up while I took bike in lift. Great place and six beds to choose from. Settled in before going to the beach for a swim, stopped and watched some birds, fish and reptiles in Park West and went shopping for provisions, as Raul said I could stay 2 nights.

A quick 10 minutes doze and off out to watch Real Madrid in bar with tapas. Onto an Irish bar for more drinks and pinball. Got to bed at 1.30 am.
