Breakfast at
hotel, morning tourism in Malaga.
Visited Malaga Cathedral, Picasso museum which had about 100 Picasso
works of painting, drawing and sculpture.
Liked the earlier Cubist paintings and a couple of the wacky sculptures. The guy certainly can paint, so not sure why
he stopped.
Made it to
the bus station only just on time having miscalculated the walk, and caught
what may have been the wrong bus! Caused
a little commotion in that our seats (nos. 1 & 2 of course, booked months
ago) were occupied already by humans.
Thought that maybe the seat bookings were actually informal and my ten
words of Spanish didn’t cover a conversation about bus seating protocol in
Southern Andalusia, and so took two other seats. When the occupants of those seats arrived
there was a hurried shuffle of several humans (mostly us) and we were dealt
after a thorough shuffling into two separate seats. No idea if we were on the wrong bus (leaving coincidentally
to the same place at correct time) or if two others took our seats or
double-booked. Nonetheless, a
comfortable ride and took us to Granada (Spain not Peru).
Taxi to our
accommodation at Smartsuites Albacin.
Very nice spacious, modern, self-catering apartment in the ancient town
not far from the L’Alhambra, full of winding, narrow, cobbled streets.
Dinner out at
one of the many Tapas cafes. Very tasty
marinated olives that even Martha liked.
