Marbella

The Don Alfredo

Our drive to Marbella was short, only about 65 kms in total but it transformed us from a high mountainous region (Revelstoke high) to the Mediterranean sea again. 

Now Marbella is the beach town/city that Spaniards come to and we had picked the Don Alfredo Hotel on the recommendation of Trev and Chenty. It has not disappointed. It is situated just outside the old town with it’s face on the NE corner facing old town. As you can see from the pictures it has some beautiful views from our 3rd floor balcony.


And Marbella is typical, with a promenade overlooking the beach, two smaller marina’s right on the promenade, and many many restaurants. And the nightlife with people strolling in the evening, eating after 10 pm  is common as it begins to cool, it was 28C on the beach and 33 -36C back off the beach during the day, it is a magical trip to a very different lifestyle from ours, and one we are adapting to more each day.

The fountains are beautiful, so are the women you can photograph with them, and the living is good.

Sandra wanted a picture of us both here so last night we took a picture of some other people there and they took this one for us.
