Granada's Greatness in 10 Moments

10. Graffitti: Funny, political, meaningful... there was lots!

9. The City itself: A quick overview of the city ended with a beautiful sight. Maybe after 30 minutes of walking up hill (or stairs/ or both?) on cobblestone the rest was what overtook us all... but the amazing view cannot be denied!

8. Tea: Arabic tea is yummmmmmy!

7. Belly Dancing: Our group got a belly dancing show along with our tea. We love Carlos' (ISA) surprises for us!

6. Tombs: The church with the tombs of Isabel, Ferdinand, and Juana the Loca. Couldn't take pictures, so this one outside will suffice.. but it was really amazing to see
5. Hookah: A little flavor of the Arabic world.. interesting!
4. Shopping: Pottery, tapestries, bags, and anything you can imagine... Walking the Arabic district browsing through all the little trinkets was super guay (super cool).

3. Fair: Everyone who was in Granada was here during the evenings and early morning hours. MEGA HUGE! Also goes to prove that the strangest people congregate at fairs in every country.

2. Flamenco: Saw some pro- saw some learners.. but all around neato.




1. La Alhambra: VOTE FOR LA ALHAMBRA FOR THE NEW WONDERS OF THE WORLD!! Dreamlike gardens, gorgeous view, amazing detail... just wish I could see it at its heyday

Love and kissed - get better as we are WORRIED! So is Grandma Sally. If she had a passport, she would be at your door checking vitals.

Happy to hear and see news of Granda. Assume you are feeling better and hope you have a complete recovery. We were all worried. You are so far away. GM
