Determined to find a classy Costa del Sol we set sail for Marina Del Este 40 miles east of malaga. We sunbath and fish (unsuccessfully again! ) along the coast as the wind slowly builds and we shake out the headsail. Passing Torremelinos (Google fat pink people) we watch the planes landing in malaga by the minute.
We sunbath and enjoy salami and cheese salad lunch But soon the coast looks more Greek and after a hour passage we prepare to enter Marina Del Este which turns out to be a private secluded marina top dollar but really classy and not a grockle in sight. We pick up a great berth and decide to cook on board so prepare the gin and tonics which ran out rather quickly so resort to rum punch. Heather tames the local barman for free ice. We fire up the Cobb bbq and grill the pork steaks bought last night with ratatouille and garlic potatoes. The free wine from the marina doesn't compare to the local rioja which completes the evening along with bbqed pineapple. Night night xx
