ESTEPONA

Sun 25th Feb.
The forcast for the next five days was hot and sunny,so we set off to
catch the bus into Estepona and walked along to the port to the
Marina for a tapas lunch. As we passed the Bullring we saw that
there was a Grand Festival on later in the day,so we bought
tickets. The bullring was opened in 1972,its asymmetric design
makes this bullring the only one of its kind in the world! The festival
started as the sun set and the flood lights came on. We had front
row seats,five rows back and followed the spectacular with much
interest and joined in with the locals waving and shouting.After it
finished we went for a late supper at the Mare Nostun Chino
Restaurant in the marina and finished off the day with complimentary
liqueurs.No pictures to follow !! ( Of the bullfight )
