Day 16: At the Beach

This is how I imagine a great weekend! We spend half of the day shopping at Plaza Mayor which was quite overwhelming. We managed to explore about one third of it and do NOT ask how much I spent. Let me just tell you that I planned to buy 1 thing and ended up buying 3. The afternoon was spent by the sea. In October, beaches at the Costa del Sol are comfortably half empty, so we were able to snatch up a good lying place on some grass under a palm tree. We had a swim in the lukewarm sea (21 degrees, I was told) and then we slept. We took a long way home through some narrow streets lined with fairytale-like little houses with walls covered in painted tiles, ate some extra-expensive ice cream (flavours: Málaga, Dulce de Leche, and Coco) and stopped by the stalls in which South-American Indians sold colourful jewellery. Now I am indulging in a glass of Kalimotxo on the terrace. Are you jealous yet?

Deň 16: Na pláži

Tak takto si predstavujem skvelý víkend! Pol dňa sme strávili nakupovaním v Plaza Mayor, čo bola teda dosť fuška. Podarilo sa nám preskúmať asi tretinu a ani sa ma nepýtajte koľko som minula. Poviem len toľko, že som si dnes plánovala kúpiť 1 vec a skončila som s 3. Poobede sme sa presunuli na pláž. V októbri sú pláže tu na Costa del Sol pohodlne poloprázdne, takže sa nám podarilo uchmatnúť si dobré miesto na ležanie na tráve pod palmou. Zaplávali sme si vo vlažnom mori (vraj malo 21 stupňov), a potom sme spali. Domov sme šli dlhšou cestou úzkymi uličkami lemovanými rozprávkovými domčekmi so stenami obloženými maľovanými obkladačkami, dali sme si extra-drahú zmrzlinu (príchute: Málaga, Dulce de Leche a Coco) a zastavili sa pri stánkoch, v ktorých Juhoamerickí Indiáni predávali farebné náhrdelníky. Teraz si vychutnávam pohár Kalimotx-a na terase. Tak už závidíte?
