    Back on our Own

    October 17, 2021 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    A late transfer back to Malaga, it was a quick drop off of bags at our hotel before jumping on the train to Castillo de Colomares, a monument dedicated to Christopher Columbus. Located about an hour outside of Malaga (if you take public transit), it's a cool looking castle structure with the bow of a ship. It's not large by any means, but we spent about an hour or so just taking photos and exploring.

    It's definitely an instagrammable spot, so just fun to visit. For a balance of time and cost, take the train to Benelmadena and then an Uber.

    Tonight, we met up with most of our tour mates who are also staying in Malaga. Our attempt to tapas crawl resulted in only 2 places, El Pimpi and Cortijo de Pepe. The first is a popular wine/tapas spot also popular with locals, and then we sampled the grilled octopus at Pepe. Delicious!
