Woke up at noon, and met the Cavehill walking club at cHILL at 2pm. Had an iced latte with all the works (caramel sauce and whipped cream). Then cycled all the way to Bangor, a cool 29km one way, with some patches that felt more like mountain biking than my usual style of riding - quite a challenge! Had fish and chips at Bangor and cycled back, only stopping at Victoria park for a bit of rest and to eat the fruit I had packed, and finally at Ben Madigans as Shruti and some of the walking club had met up there for a drink. The total ride was a little over 60km, which made it my 3rd longest ride of all time!

off to Spain! flight at 6am from Belfast International Airport, and I did something crazy-ish: drove to the airport, dropped shruti off with the bags, then drove about a mile away to a spot I scoped out on Google maps to be legal to park, unfolded my cycle from the boot, and cycled to the airport! chained my cycle next to another one, and we were off on an uneventful but tiring flight to malaga. landed at 9am, took the bus to Marbella (and literally missed one bus by a minute!), dropped our bags at the Airbnb (Marbella is very hilly!) and then headed out to grab a bite at a street side cafe. walked around a little more, made a dinner reservation at a highly rated tapas place, headed back to the bnb, checked in, and took a quick nap. was so sleepy though, we couldn't bring ourselves to wake up for the dinner reservation at 7pm, but thankfully they allowed us to move it to 9pm and we were ready and fresh by then. after the relaxed dinner, we walked around a bit and clicked photos before heading to our Airbnb. super start to our vacation!
