I took the ferry from Malaga over 30 years ago. I'd trade being there over here any day. You can't beat the south of Spain.
That's so true. Only thing I need from time to time is Frangokastello in Crete at the south coast. Total peace. Are You in Germany?

Oh no. I live in New York though I'm working right outside Washington D.C. for a few months. I used to travel more when I was younger. I have been to Germany a few times. Munich and Cologne as a teenager and Berlin a few years after the wall came down.

Wow. I remember I have been at the Tennis Masters 1989 for the first time in NY. I saw McEnroe live in the Garden.... You can't imagine the feelings that theses impressions of this 'city' burn into Your soul and memory.

I was born in NYC and have lived here most of my life. Deep down I still love it, but I'm very angry and disappointed with the direction New York has taken over the past 50 years. Now I feel like family is the only reason I stay.

I understand You perfectly. Same thing with Germany for me. I left, learned spanish, opened a 2nd small business over here and here we go... I feel spanish in a way now that we even go to the bull fights...
I wish You and Your fam good luck and veeeery strong nerves

Thanks and same to you. I haven't thought about my trip to Southern Spain in years. We stayed in a little town on the coast called Almunicar, I think.
