Daytrip to Malaga

It recently hit us that our time is running out in Spain and we need to make the most of it!  We decided to take an overnight trip to the city of Malaga, which is a coastal city two and a half hours from us on the Mediterranean side of Spain.  We haven't heard many people speak of it one way or the other, however, it was a pleasant surprise.  It had ancient Moorish ruins, a vibrant downtown, and a Dunkin Donuts!

Palm trees and 60 degree weather at 10:00 a.m.

Walking the perimeter of the Alcazaba and looking for the entrance!

Finally, we found the entrance
