Flying to Malaga is perfectly fine. The bus only takes about 2-3 hours and is only 8 or 9 euro. They even stop along the way for a little break!

Personal comments
The exchange rate was difficult to adjust to at first. Also, you need to buy a mobil phone here. Everyone has one and it is the best way to communicate. I spent 100 euro on the phone and about 30-40 euro a month.
