After visiting the bullfighting arena we walk around the quaint little town and get lunch and dessert.

Costa del Sol, Spain

We arrived in Costa del Sol just in time to check into our rooms and catch a sunset over the sea.  There were a lot of tourist-related restaurants beachfront and even more very elaborate hotels.  Something about this town made me think of the retirement villages in Florida. We leave early in the morning the next day and are only stopping here for the night.  The buffet was the latest I've ever seen.  Did someone say chocolate fondu?
