Cute and Unexpected Marbella

If I could only use two words to describe Marbella it would be cute and unexpected. We started off the day with a bus ride that took an unexpected amount of time. We thought it would only take 15 minutes but due to two large tour groups full of cute elderly people who spoke less Spanish than us it unexpectedly took over an hour. We arrived in Old Marbella, which is full of cute orange trees lining cute narrow streets which are full of cute shops and a cute café where we were served café con leche from a cute Dutch man who unexpectedly spoke English. This kind man gave us directions to La Plaza de los Naranjos, which you could probably guess by now was….cute! We then unexpectedly found a cheap taxi, which took us to La Cañada!! What is La Canada you might ask? No, it is not the northern most country in North America…it is a shopping mall. La Cañada is full of cute European clothing and cute Christmas directions. We unexpectedly ran into a couple of our cooperating teachers who directed us to their favorite cute stores. La Cañada was unexpectedly like a mall we might find back home but I think it is a litter cuter. After a long day full of cute and unexpected occurrences we were ready to go back to our cute Estepona home.

I hope you have a cute and unexpected day!

Love from, Mary Ellen Korby
