Three Kings in Malaga January 6 is the fiesta of the Three Kings when children in Spain receive their gifts. The previous evening, the streets are thronged as children on spectacular floats throw sweets to the crowds. Sweets are great but champagne cocktails and tapas with friends Sandy and Jim even better. A shop window full of traditional 'crown' cakes.
Sunday lunch in Montes de Malaga, a natural park minutes from the city with Jim, Sandy and Mike. The view was spectacular - across the Mediteranean all the way to Africa.
The fare was traditional rustic - ideal fuel for hikers.
No hiking, just a post-prandial stroll through the pine woods.
