We started another day with breakfast in the terrace ! We could tell that today was going to be hot which was perfect for our beach day.
After breakfast we got a cab and headed to Puente Romano which is a very very nice high end resort. The have some chairs on the beach or what they would call a beach club.. We rented a few chairs for the day and they set them up with towels and and our day of relaxation began.
We took a walk along the boardwalk to check out some of the other beach clubs and resort .. we were in a very nice area.
After a little more relaxing we headed to the Sea Grill for our 130 reservation. We had an amazing seafood buffet. Although it was called a seafood buffet there was much much more! We started at the A huge salad bar wth all kinds of toppings. We then moved on to the seafood buffet .. Lobster, oysters, prawns , delicious! Then it was onto meats.. a little steak and lamb which they cook to order and plated beautifully. Then of course dessert! We tried a little bit of everything and finished up our bottle of wine and back to the beach to relax some more...

We headed to take a dip in the pool and then back to our hotel.. of course for a siesta and get our packing done for our early departure in the morning.
Tonight we had dinner reservations at Paco Jimenez.. It is located right in the center of old town. We arrived at 8 pm and had the restaurant to ourselves until about 830. All the tables didn't fill up until about 930.. 8pm is very early for dinner here in Spain.. but since we had to be up at 530 for our 6am
ride to Malaga for the train to Madrid we did not want to be out too late.
Our meal was delicious. They offered a beet gazpacho to start which was very different and delicious! !We started with fois gras.. then Wayne had a Duck confit which was presented beautifully, I had a rich creamy crab in a pastry tulip. Delicious... there was a few tables away that we could not help but eavesdrop on.. they were very difficult from the moment they walked in.. she ordered the lemon chicken and sent it back and the women who ran and owns the restaurant was very concerned .. it is a small family business and her husband is the chef , they take great pride in the food they serve.. I could not hear what her complaint was but I did hear her tell them that she was going to have to put this on Facebook and TripAdvisor ... we had no complaints and we were sure to let the owner and and staff know that we enjoyed our meal..

The back to the hotel.. to a nice surprise! A bottle of champagne from the stafff for our anniversary., since we had to get up so early we decided to take the bottle with us and save it for when we could enjoy it..
off to bed... another great day !
Happy Anniversary to us!
