Spain 2026 Beach!

It's a beautiful day at the beach here in Torremolinos! We're all settled in, and the storms have decided to take a break 🤪

Spain 2026 Torremolinos

We're here! 

And we missed the worst of the storms!

We had a *mostly* easy drive - the only real anxiety was from the storms and forecasts. But even though we kept seeing signs warning of snow, we only drove through some rain and a little fog. We made sure to leave early, and we took a less-mountainous route.

Well, OK, Google messed us up, again, in Valencia - they are still working on the roads approaching the airport, and this batch of spaghetti is only partly completed! We went 'round the barn, just like 2 years ago 🙄

We had planned to see more of the Alhambra in Granada, so we stayed there last night. But Storm Francis came through, and we changed our minds! 

Instead of sightseeing, we left for Torremolinos (Málaga) before the next storm arrived (success!). We even had time to get groceries and settle in 😅

Tomorrow is a holiday in Spain - 3 Kings Day.

(Yes, definitely!)

Spain is calling! 

Here's what we'll be missing 

VS this

However, the weather in between is mixed! We have some choices for our stormy drive here. The southern route is through snow country, and the middle route is longer (plus also perhaps snow). We've been on most of the northern route before, and the roads are pretty good - and not so mountainous!
