Malaga

Our last stop on the cruise was in Malaga, part of the Costa de Sol in Spain. A highlight for us was taking a (sketchy) taxi ride to the city of Mijas. We loves the whitewashed buildings and beautiful views. 
If we looked reeeaaalllly hard, we could see a speck of Africa across the Strait of Gibraltar.

Donkey Taxi in Mijas

Beautiful!!!

After some time in Mijas, our taxi driver took us on a tour of Malaga. It was nice, but the kids were d.o.n.e with tours and taxis. We asked him for a last stop at a souvenir shop before he took us back to the boat. Chelsea picked out a pen and a bookmark, and Cade found a belt. He had been wanting a belt for oh so long, but he is so skinny that we hadn't been able to find one. We found a cloth belt in the shop, and Larry cut it to make it fit. Cade was thrilled and it was quite possibly the highlight of his vacation.

  1. Sometimes finding a one of a kind accessory, such as a perfect fitting belt, makes or breaks a vacation, Carey!! Sounds like the sketchy taxi cab rides were well worth it. Mijas looks so picturesque!
