Foot Loose

I have done something truly stupid while away in Spain. I didn’t look after my feet, and as a result it has left me in pain, and to be brutally honest it pissed me off for the final days of the trip.

Football and firemen in Malaga

Coming full circle, we arrived back in Malaga. We had one night to explore before begrudgingly catching our plane the next morning, so we checked into the hostel and set off to see what was going on.

Train tours in Antequera

We had finished off the previous night by drinking local shots with the owner of a small taberna, which were poured from a label-less, old bottle that was pulled out the depths of a freezer. I don't know exactly what was in that bottle, or how long it had been sitting at the back of that freezer, but I do know it tasted of sweet, rich caramel and was quite strong.

As we stepped of the train in a dry basin, surrounded by fields of olive tress and hills, we realised we had made a mistake.

The Great Mosque of Córdoba

The Mesquite de Córdoba (the Great Mosque of Córdoba) is one of those places that you need to visit at least once in your life.

Holá Córdoba

I fell in love with Córdoba as soon as we arrived. The architecture, the mix of Roman and Moorish cultures, cobbled alleyways, abundance of orange trees and warm sun. There was nothing I didn't like.

Goodbye Sevilla.

Sevilla is beautiful, big, and busy, and in all honesty you could spend a month exploring and still not see anything. Unfortunately it was our final few hours in the city - so we decided to enjoy it and experience what we could without rushing.
