Marbella (Part 2)The day after our awful hangovers we were all feeling back on form, so got up early to have a full day of sunshine at the pool. It was really quiet so we had the entire area to ourselves, so took the opportunity to take some fun timed photos!
In the evening we got ready and had a very civilised meal in nearby town Benihavis. We went to a restaurant that Abi recommended from her last visit, called Amigos, and it definitely deserved the good reputation. We shared a bottle of Cava, and Emily and I had beef stroganoff, with a caramelised onion marmalade, whilst Abi went for roasted pork. You could choose between chips or Dauphinoise potatoes (Em and I half and halved), and it also came with fresh veg - delicious!
I was feeling flush so treated myself to a crème Catalan for dessert (Spanish crème brulee - my fave) and with a tip mine came to 37 euros, which I didn't think too bad for the quality of food I had. Afterwards we bought a bottle of wine and drank it back at the flat, a nice relaxed evening.
The next day was Emily and I's final full day, so after another day at the pool we got ready for a second night out in Puerto Banus. We started off in a place called News Cafe that we had been told to go to by one of Abi's friends who used to be a promoter there. We got a free spirit and mixer, and the view from the balcony at the top was really lovely, you could see right across the port at all the amazing yachts. Next we ended up back at Lineker's, where we spent the rest of the night - it seemed silly going somewhere else when it was the busiest and cheapest bar and was playing really good music! We left at closing time and got some cheesy chips before heading home, it felt like we were back in Manchester!
