And now on to the real holiday

sunny 34 °C
View Europe 2009 on jonaway's travel map.

We have now arrived in Spain. We had a 6 AM flight this morning and had to drive to Dusseldorf to get the flight so this meant being up and out of the hotel at 3 AM. Even with that time we barely made the flight because we couldn find the car rental return. An uneventful flight with German tourists and an interesting public bus ride into downtown as landed us in Malaga, Spain. We are staying at the Hotel California (you can check out but you can never leave)........what a beautiful place. I will tyr and take a few photos and upload them now that we have internet at the hotel. It can best be described as a botique hotel but looks way nicer in person. We are a block from the beach. Our first order of business was to walk the beach and check out the topless women and men in European speedos (there may have been some more beer involved and now Marty is napping). It will be hard to leave here on Wednesday as I think we will run out of time to see everything.

We got an upgrade on our cruise cabin - on the Navigation Deck which is way better than we paid for. Yahoo!

More later. Need to go and check the news headlines - I am craving some Calgary news - dont be shy to write.......

So good to hear from you......yesterday was a long day waiting for results, Nana said the same. Talked to Mitchell, all is well. Two huge storms here, Camrose had their stage blow down in the middle of a concert, killing one, a 3 yr. old died, on 9th ave. hit by debris. We have lots of tree broken off in last nights storm. That's summer. Have fun and enjoy your holiday. Love ya! M & D

Always a treat to read about your travels. I'm so jealous...it sounds like you're having a great time. Not much new to report from our end. June has commented on our recent weather, which has been news worthy to say the least. Other than that, same old...xo Lorna

Jona, thanks for catching up with Kelsey. We finally connected today as we arrived back in Calgary last night(Just before the storm best described as a 20 min tropical storm. Hot on Vancouver Island as well, looks like we planned it well.
