I was, that's the view from my hotel window.
That's a tough one. I'd guess somewhere in Southern Spain but i can't place it.

Always surprising to see how places you know fit together, when you're only used to seeing them from ground level.

It's a place I need to visit tbh - having only been fleetingly twice, aged 6 and 17. Most UK towns and cities have some delight to them, barring a recent example which I won't name owing to a notable former ilxor coming from there
