Landed!

Left Alhaurín yesterday, above waiting for my ride, I could hear a man speaking through a tannoy, and a crowd responding??

Was very strange! Don't know where he was, they were... 

As is the fact that my phone didn't recognize the word Tannoy, so googling found it is the name of a company who first built public address systems back in 1920! So thought I would link! 

Boarded a bit late, hanging around on the down ramp not quite in the building at Malaga Airport, a piece of luggage fell off the transporter.. someone came along and picked it up, looked a bit unsure as to where it was headed..  lost luggage no doubt! 


The bus took us to the aircraft, first time used a bus for years! It was parked right down in the top left-hand corner, by a road, some offices and near the San Miguel factory! I was in A so able to watch the cars and people.. very strange!! 

We were sat on the plane for age's it felt, left about 18:15 instead of 17:45, so really not as long as it felt... But we did land late then, I needed cash, I thought for a cab, couldn't find an ATM in the baggage collection area.. then the machine in arrivals didn't work!! 

But luckily the taxi office there only took card payments.. 

Was raining too when we disembarked, and for the journey to son's..

But, this morning, dry and the sun is around, albeit intermittent, we walked to the local big store and it's not cold at all ...

Laughed at the prices, the bag of groceries we bought cost under 40 pounds, it would have been nearer a hundred euros at home!

Was the other way about twenty years ago!

Randomness done for now amigos!
