A mini holiday in Spain

We flew to Malaga on Friday morning and came back last night, but it felt like a proper holiday, we had different weather every day, warm and cloudy Friday, rainy Saturday and very hot Sunday.
First thing we do when we arrive is to have lunch in the port in our favourite fish eatery

We always have mixed fried fish, or Fritura Malagueña, which consists of baby squid, baby fish, marinated snapper and calamari rings, all deep fried. This a picture from last year:

In the afternoon I went to read on the beach, watching little dogs trying to go for a swim in freezing water :)

Saturday started out sunny and here is me having a traditional andalusian breakfast, toasted bread with olive oil and tomatoes:

The coffee is half coffee half milk, it is amazingly tasty and we have never been able to reproduce it at home. Must be some secret - this cafe is making all this since 1944, so they had time to optimize the recipes!

Next to it is a very beautiful pharmacy. Photobucket Look at those tiles! Photobucket

More antiques are found along the beach, where old boats are used as bbq-s for fresh sardines:

The adjacent restaurants are full in any weather Photobucket

The rest of our pictures are here
