One of our first tasks was to find some Dungeons and Dragons books in Spanish. To our surprise there was a huge game store in Malaga and a small one in Torre Del Mar.
We picked up the Dungeon Masters Guide and the Monster Manual in Spanish. Leo started reading them right away. We now know the word for wand (varita), chain mail (malla), dwarf (duende). We were hoping to find a D&D camp so Leo could jump right in. So far nothing, but there are some informal groups including “el Gremio de los elementos” (the Guild of the elements).

Speaking of Magic. At the last minute as we were packing, the kids decided to bring some of their Magic cards. On our first lazy jet lag morning in Torre Del Mar, the kids busted out their cards. So when we hit the local gaming store in Torre Del Mar. They were primed! We’ve met some gamers from the area, have bought some Magic cards in Spanish and English and are getting ready for our first “Friday night Magic”. Michele is thrilled.😂
