They say Malaga is best at night, but I wanted to see a bullfight and they do those during the day. Carrie said no way on the bullfight though so maybe some other time. Once you have read Hemingway don’t you just want to see a bullfight at least once? Ask at any of the hotels Malaga Spain has about the best time of year to see a fight and they will tell you August for Feria de Malaga, a festival in the summer months. But August is hot and we live in a hot place (Tuscon anyone?) and so it was not August for us. We live so close to Mexico, and it never occurs to me to go to Mexico to see a bullfight, but somehow being in Malaga and drinking sangria and eating tapas put me in the mood. Carrie would have none of it (oh well) and there was much Picasso to see here, lots of Picasso, one wonders if Picasso ever went to a bullfight, I bet he did, he had to have. I will have to look into that. Picasso is among my favorite painters, and he did sculpture as well. Picasso and Hemingway. We could check out the Alcabaza as well. This city is quite busy so we took buses to get around rather than rent or hire a car right off. We like buses, seeing the city without the driving, they are usually clean andcomfortable wherever we go, even in New York City. Apparently there are many one way streets. We had taken a luxury train from Madrid, it was like a four hour train ride, and we sat in Spanish luxury looking at the Spanish country side as it zipped by.
