Granada

Tapa: Butternut squash with chro

A couple of weeks ago, I spent a weekend in the city that never, ever gets old for me.  I went to Granada with some of the girls from Almería.  I got there early with one friend.  We checked into our hostel and then went straight out for some tapas while we waited for the others to arrive.

I had a great time showing them around all of the main sights in the city.  We went up to the Albaicín, I walked them up to the Alhambra, I brought them to some of my favorite bars or areas of the city.  The thing that amazes me about Granada is that every time I go, I STILL find something new.  This is one of the reasons I love going.  I love going back to a city that I know and love, but it is so great that I can go back multiple times and still come across things that had escaped me before.

I think that I was successful in making everyone fall in love with Granada and I have a feeling that they will be frequent visitors in the future.

There was a couple taking their wedding photos in the Alhambra

Another great part about the weekend was that I was able to meet up with some friends that I know from my university and study abroad program that now live in Granada.  It's always great to see familiar faces :)
