Malaga East from the ship
We had an early departure from Malaga, at 15:30, because it is a long way back to Blighty from there, so we took a coach trip up to a carefully manicured village described as "Mystical Mijas". It was certainly cute but a bit weak on historical interest apart from a Moorish watch tower & the Church of the Immaculate Conception, who's tower was a recycled minaret, as in Seville.
