Ronda

A day of discoveries: we found Confiteria Daver, just in time for morning coffee; they have an incredible selection of pastries.

Almost at the bottom

We found the trail down to the river, at the bottom of the "new bridge" built in 1793; it started as wide stone steps, but soon got rather narrow, until it was a tiny trail hugging the side of the cliff. We kept expecting it to end, but at the bottom of the bridge there were metal stairs going down to a concrete catwalk that took us under the arch, so that we were right beside the rushing blue-green water.
We found the Museo del Bandoleros (Bandit Museum), a small but fascinating place full of artifacts, documents, photos, books, and life-size dioramas. They even had an old bandit movie playing.
This evening we found our way to a concert of Musica Sacra (Sacred Music) in what used to be a chapel, but is now an art gallery. The narrow space had a ceiling that had to be 50 feet tall. With a white ceiling, walls that were two-thirds white and one third (at the top) orange-red, it was a bright, inviting venue. The musicians played the organ (keyboard), violin, and trombone. The fellow on the organ had the most expressive eyebrows and face, it was almost as entertaining watching him attend to his notes and fellow musicians as it was listening to the music, which was delightful.

A bandit? No, he tied up his horse then put out a sign saying for 2 euros you can take my picture!
