On to our next Destination! July 4th

Today we are headed to Marbella!   Our flight was at 915 so we said our good byes and headed to get a taxi about 7am.  Checked in and found a spot to grab a quick breakfast at the airport and on to our flight.  We few Vueling airlines.  I guess I would kind of compare it to spirit... the seats were soooo tight.. somehow we needed up with a middle and window seat which I never pick. I not sure how that happened.  Wayne was not happy with his window seat. There was really no space between our knees and the seats in front of us..

We pretty much slept the whole flight, which was about 2 hours, so I guess it could have been worse. We arrived in Malaga and claimed our luggage and exited the airport to a nice gentleman waiting with a sign with our name.  We walked to his very nice Mercedes for  our ride to Marbella.  I proceeded to sleep for most of the hour ride. It is amazing how much we have slept so far on our vacation!

We arrived at the Hotel  Claude Marbella which is in the center of the old town. It is just 7 rooms and we have booked the Franchescha suite. The receptionist let us know that she could have our rooms ready in about 10 minutes so we walked around to checked everything out in the hotel and then relaxed in the lobby.






After we dropped off our luggage and changed we decided to head to Puerto Banus which is a very nice port where the very rich and famous hang out, andam oretty sure we saw lots of rich but no one fa our , atleastnoone thatwe recognized.   We took and taxi over and strolled along the waterfront checking out all the amazing cars and boats...we had lunch where we had a great spot to people watch and a perfect view of the port and waterfront.


After lunch we strolled some more along the high end shops, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Burberry etc etc...and then walked past the beach area.  We decided to take the catamaran boat back to old town.  It was a nice ride with a sangria ..much better than the taxi!


Back at the hotel it was siesta time!  We could definitely get used to the Spanish lifestyle ..to bad we still have to work for a living...

After our siesta we headed out at about 8 pm to find some dinner .  We got back to the hotel about 11pm and were ready for bed...


Tomorrow we are off to Ronda for a day Tour!

Pictures are giving me a problem..I will add them as soon as I can..
