Granada

Another night of no flying, headed out to Granada. Ditched the car and walked to find places, it's so hard to find street parking anywhere. Found a giant cathedral, a monument of catholic penis envy of the muslims who were here before. Wandered a narrow spider web (spider on drugs) of narrow alleyways, can't imagine how you would ever give someone directions if you lived somewhere in there. Got to a great lookout point to see the Alhambra, the main attraction of Granada. An old muslim fort with palaces and such. Weaved our way back down then followed the chinese route (not sure how it has that name, it's not like there are many chinese here) around the rear of the Alhambra to the entrance. It's really neat just wandering. Inside the Alhambra, it as amazing the details of the carvings covering entire walls of palaces. Also extensive impressive gardens, likely incredible in the summertime. Was fun to stand atop towers and look out over the city. With these sorts of things, it's hard to imagine how many people over how many decades it would have taken to create. I didn't have much to eat or have sunglasses, and by the end of the day I was feeling weak and headachey, but about half an hour after a meal I felt quite good again. Stopped for some tea/coffee and headed back 'home'.
