I'm starting to wonder if I've developed an obsession to travel. I wrote, not so long ago, that traveling and "seeing the world" was my justification of being abroad. Now I find myself scouring maps of Europe for unchartered destinations. Browsing through the budget carriers, Easyjet, Wizz, Germanwings, Ryanair looking for the next stamp in my passport. The May second long weekend was a little bit of a struggle, I've noticed that there's fewer places to travel and even fewer people willing to travel with! The proposition, a Southern Spanish road trip from Malaga to Jerez de la Frontera through Andalucia.
Landed in Malaga only to be greeted by a terribly-mannered goldcar car rental clerk. "These are not options, this is the information!". Possibly the rudest customer service experienced you could make a sitcom based purely on his character. We threated to take our custom elsewhere but succumbed to laze and the deathly stares from the queue behind. Tired, not fussed we were scooting from Malaga Airport in the goldcar rental Ford Focus towards Malaga town centre.
Managed to cover a far amount of the district driving along Coasta del Sol with 3 of the four passengers taking turns to drive. The weather was excellent and the drive as spectacular. We made our way from Malaga, Marbella, Gibraltar, Tarifa, Vejer and to Cadiz before flying out of Jerez.
