Sunday 28 and Monday 29th September
It's only a few hours drive up to Granada. We stopped for brunch in Playa Burriana.
Since we are not in Homer this year, we're choosing hotels right downtown. In Granada, it was the Marcia 5 Senses.The downside of this is that the underground carparks are expensive and ridiculously cramped and driving in the city centre is difficult. Neil has done a excellent job getting us in and out of a lot of tight situations. In Granada things got close to impossible due to closed roads for a festival of sorts. After a short rest in the hotel, we went out to see the religious Procession of the Virgin de las Angustias. Neil found us a great vantage point in a bar with comfy seats and wine. Dinner in busy Calle Navas.
We ubered up to the Alhambra on Monday. It's a truly amazing complex and the Nasrid Palaces are stunning but we are astounded at how so much more busy and touristy everything is since we were last here. Coffee and cake for brunch. An Uber to Albaicin.
Get dropped off at the top and make your way back down to town - it's steep.
Tapas for dinner followed by a serious but suitably short Flamenco Show.(Important for my cultural exposure but not my taste in music or dance.)
