Super Sunday in Malaga

 We had an awesome Sunday here in Malaga. We started our day off at the beach and then managed to sneak in an other visit in the late afternoon.

We had an easy going start to the day with firstly taking the dog for a walk while we went for a coffee. We had coffee in a nice little cafe that faced this farmacia. As we were leaving, I decided to take a photo of Bones in front of the doorway. Well......you know the way they say never work with animals or children - this was the perfect case in point.

It took us numerous attempts to get Bones to stand and stay in position for the photo. After numerous tries (and with two groups of people in the cafe looking over at us doing this) he eventually stood and we got the picture.  And that is when the fun started.  When we were done and we wanted to leave, we called Bones. He then decided that it was now time to stand for the picture and would not leave. Honestly that dog!!  

Well it gave us a good laugh and it also gave the two groups in the cafe who were surveying the whole scene a good laugh too!!

After dropping Bones back to the apartment we then got out on the bikes and headed to the beach. Ciaran was so hot from the cycle that he went straight in for a swim the minute we arrived!

And then later on we went for a visit to the Centre Pompidou Malaga. This was an excellent art museum and we had a great visit, which you can read all about over on Ciaran's website - click here.
It was after the Centre Pompidou visit that we then went back to the beach for a second time (on bikes again) where we enjoyed a drink in a little beach shack looking out on to the water. Bliss!

I had a 7pm date for a What's App video meetup with Amy & Alice so we left about 6.45pm to get back to the apartment for that. But thinking about it now, I probably could have done that from the beach too. 
It was so great to see my best friend and twin sister on video and we had a super catch up. Alice had given us some happy news about her son and we chatted about that and lots of other stuff. It was a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to the next virtual meetup.

And then the day continued when we headed out about 8.30pm for a few tapas and a glass of wine. We went to Cortijo de Pepe. It had a very traditional tapas bar inside but we sat outside because you generally can't do that in Ireland given the weather, so it probably will always be a novelty for us :-)

And afterwards it was home to sit on the terrace where I had my usual little mini slice of cheesecake and we talked about what a great day we had in Malaga!
