Trip Down - Day 4


There were more stunning views to be enjoyed and it wasn't until we got closer to Malaga and Fuengirola that we picked up traffic and temperatures rose. There were some 'interesting' bends on the motorway that we had to join on the way into Malaga, which made you sit up and pay attention. I find in this situation that you can end up following the person in front too much, without paying much attention to the road in anticipation as you should, but there were no close calls. The traffic, however, was very unpleasant at times as Spanish car drivers will cut up motorcyclists without warning or even try to push you out of your lane, so we were all glad when it was over and we got to the Confortel overlooking the beach in Fuengirola. This turned out to have been a good find as the picture from my balcony testifies. The hotel was already filling with HOGs and bikes were parked all over the pavement outside.
