This past weekend I went to nerja with 3 other people from my program. We left saturday morning and came back on sunday night around 7:30. We stayed at a hostel that included breakfast (hostal azahara). Nerja was the cutest town ever. Almost every building is white, there were flowers everywhere, the water was crystal clear, and it was 75 and sunny both days. (can you say paradise?)

On saturday we explored the town and went to marbeillo beach. We went to the town center and to balcon de europe for an amazing view of the coast! My only complaint about this beach is that instead of sand it was mostly just small pebbles. But the water was great. :)

After spending a few hours at the beach we went to get ice cream near balcon de europa and then we went out to dinner that evening. It was an adorable little italian place. The portions were huge and the prices were great. I got pesto pasta :)

On sunday we went to marbeo beach (just one beach west of marbeillo). The sand here was much nicer, not quite as rocky. The night before we bought ingredients to make sandwiches to eat on the beach. We also walked through these cave-like rock formations. It was such a relaxing weekend. Couldn't have asked for anything better!
