Rediscovering Andalucia

I first visited Spain, Andalucia to be precise in September 2011. Our adventures included Tarifa, Vejer de la fronterra, Cadiz, Seville & Chipiona. We had a blast and were keen to had back. This didn't happen for us until March 2014 after we passed up a trip to Rome & Venice in Italy. We had been tying with the idea of buying property in Spain after many episodes of Rick Stein's Spain and "A place in the sun". We particularly liked the idea of the Granada province after reading Chris Stewart' s series about life in the Alpujarras.   We did some research and found a few properties worth a look in  thee Baza region of the Granada province. We arrived into Malaga and drove straight to Lanjaron after reading about it again in Chris Stewart. Lanjaron is a lovely town and almost all the stores/restaurants we entered were Espanol only. We dined in a lovely quiet place where the only communication we had was for the waitress to tell us the wine we had chosen
