Sunday Funday in Spain!

Sunday in Malaga

What a super day here in Malaga. It's a holiday weekend here in Spain so there is a great buzz around the place along with the Sabor a Malaga Festival being on.

We were up early and headed out in to what could only be described as "fresh" weather to play padel tennis. I really enjoyed it, playing mixed games where you move up a court when you win your game and down a court if you lose. We started out on the bottom court (that's just the luck of the draw) and made our way up to the top court and then ended back in the middle court by the end of the whole session. 

Sabor a Malaga (Taste of Malaga)

After the padel we cycled home for a quick shower and took the dog for a walk where we meandered down to the Sabor a Malaga festival. There was a queue (in order to ensure that the place was not crowded and everyone could be socially distanced) in the the main area where there was a large tented stage area with food demos and entertainment taking place so we left this area and took a walk down where there were lots of vendors in small huts selling their products.

A taste of Malaga - Chestnuts!

We had our first taste of chestnuts when we stopped off at one of the many chestnut selling stands that are found all over the city at this time of the year. I had been wanting to taste these the first time that I saw one of these stalls pop up and today was the perfect day as it was quite chilly and felt very Christmassy. 

So chestnuts taste interesting, kind of nutty I would say. I definitely liked them and am sure I will get them again over the holiday season :-)
