Mountain Village of Mijas- Sunday, November 7, 2010

Enjoyed sleeping late on this day and spent a longer breakfast in the hotel with our Grand Circle friends. 

All our traveling group is well educated and interested in learning about other cultures.  Many of our new friends have traveled numerous Grand Circle adventures all over the world- European River Cruises, South and Central American exploration, India, Greek Isles and many more.  It makes us feel more confident that people we have grown to trust have enjoyed other Grand Circle trips. 

Sleepy Donkeys in Mijas

Today, we took a short bus ride to Mijas- an ancient town in the higher elevation.  Donkey carts lined the streets and restaurants and shops surrounded the little town square.  A beautiful chapel sat high on the point overlooking the town.  We returned to our hotel early and worked on our travel blog, since we were so far behind!  Staying busy and enjoying every minute!

Ate this evening at Don Pablo- a huge luxury hotel that offers a great buffet.  Our Grand Circle dining coupon paid for it!  We ate sensibly of great salads, fish, chicken and fruit.  Just a little dessert with dried figs!
