Next day of my visit to Seville, I woke up really early and headed myself to Malaga, as my final destination was really that city.
For over 10 years I planned to visit Malaga, after I read in some magazine a small article, however I kept delaying this trip...

Malaga is a very exotic city, much more cooler than Seville and, in my opinion, much prettier too. You will hear and see exotic birds all over the city, so amazing.
Malaga is a small city and I think one or two days are enough to visit the main attractions. I stood there for only one day and, for me, was enough.

To see:

- Roman Teather
- Cathedral
- Gibralfaro Castle
- Alcazaba
- Birthplace of Picasso
- Picasso Museum
- Pompidou Centre
Among other places...

Tips:

- Buy your combine ticket to Castle and Alcazaba, cheaper, although the individual price is also cheap.
- At the Castle you get a panoramic view over Malaga and its harbour. Beautiful!
- Between the Castle and Alcazaba you have a path that links both monuments, its pretty doable but 'slippy', be aware.
- Avoid eating Tapas at Alcazaba, too bad and too high price.
- The entrance at Cathedral is paid, in my opinion, high price to see a small cathedral with little to see.
- Malaga is known for its sweet wine, very similar to Portuguese Porto wine and sweet liquor Moscatel. You should try it although the quality of Malaga's wine comparing with Portuguese is lower.
- If you buy sight seeing bus Hop-on, Hop-off combine ticket with museums, you get a free boat ride and one flamenco show (read the brochure in advance).
- Once again, avoid horse pull carriages... Don't enjoy your staying over animals' suffering!

Since I has forced to started gluten free diet, my all diet changed so much, I had to take off everything with wheat, a bunch of things I used to eat and you never think it was wheat...

Obviously I have to be creative as gluten free pre-made food is so expensive, so its a true challenge to make gluten free food yourself, like waffles. The trick is all about the flour. Find yourself a good mix of gluten free flour. I discovered Dove Farm gluten free flour and I totally advice you to get it! You can not compare to home made mix of flour you read all over the internet... In Portugal, Celeiro sell this flour!



The recipe is very simple and will give around 9 waffles!

Ingredients:
- 1 cup of tea of flour gluten free mix ( with Xantham gum included)
- 1 table spoon of sugar
- 1 table spoon raising powder (gluten free)
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 table spoon of salt
- 1/4 cup of tea of oil
- 2/3 table spoon of milk

Start to mix all ingredients solids. Than mix the eggs, oil and milk ans stir very well until you get a smooth dough.
Pre-heat the waffle machine and spray a bit of oil.


Pour 2 or 3 spoons of the dough into the middle of each waffle form and let it cook until the waffle has a golden colour or the light is off.

I can advice you to eat it with ice-cream (see image below), chantilly and chocolate! Bomb!!

You can make more quantity and put in the freezer involved in tin foil. Every time you want to eat, just take it out, put for one minute in the toaster and you will never notice it had been in the freezer. Perfect!
And enjoy the rest of your day!

Well, I'm back! I'm back from terribly hot Spain! And I have so much to tell you!

Although my final destination was Málaga, I decided to take the most of this journey and made a stop in Seville, for at least one day.
Last monday, I left around 6h in the morning to Sevilla!
I've decided to take my now car after I checked the flight tickets and had search on Via Michelin site, the best and cheapest way to get my destinations by car. So I took my car and spent 50 euros of diesel, including return tour from Sesimbra - Sevilla - Málaga - Serpa - Sesimbra, plus 9 euros of polls on my way back. Very acceptable right?
I took my own car and I can tell you the way to Spain and Seville is very good and the view was nice, with a few stops along the way to refresh myself, get some fresh water, stretch my legs and get fresh water, because it really a necessary thing. I drunk more water in one day than I normally do in a all week...

Sevilla is absolute, tremendously hot city and is usual to see refreshing systems at esplanades of most of the restaurants and coffees shops. But believe me, even with that systems you will find hard to cool off!
After my arrival and made check-in, I headed myself to the centre of the city but soon realized I could be in the streets for much longer and took a cab to my hotel and stood there until 19h at the evening, under the air conditioning. Was 43 degrees in the shadows and the air was unbreathable. Twice I felt dizzy and had to cool myself with a shower of cold water just in the middle of the street.

About the city itself...
Its a small city, so a day or two is enough. There is not much to see and the city looks old, to be honest. I advice you to visit Sevilla off hot season!

To see:

- Plaza of Spain
- Torre del Oro
- Metropol Parasol
- Giralda
- Bull fighting ring of Maestranza
- Triana Bridge
- Cathedral of Seville
- Reales Alcázares of Seville
Among other points of minor interests...

Tips:

- Use fresh and light clothing, because of the hot/weather.
- Drink lots of water, eat ice-creams and food that may hydrate you, once again because of the hot.
- Use public transports to get around the city, or sight seeing bus.
- If you take your own car, like I did, be aware of parking payments. Blue lines on the floor, indicates payment during working hours; white lines on the floor indicate free parking space.
- Plane your trip ahead and - if you take your car - check costs and best way to get from point A to B with Via Michelin website, which is excellent for tips and gives you an idea of how much can cost you taking your own car.
- Make a small boat tour and get a different perspective of the city.
- Avoid ride carriages... You will see plenty of carriages pull by horses all over Sevilla. Those animals work under extremely hot sun, pulling loads of weight just to entertain people. You can me enjoy yourself in Sevilla and be a better person and not include animal cruelty.















Funny fact, Heidiland also had been in Sevilla a couple of weeks before me, you can read her post here!

Don't know here is it? Right next to Cais Fluvial of Belém, with an amazing view over the river and bridge
