à Grenade

So today’s got to be one of the first real let-downs I’ve had in my past couple years in Europe. I’m in Granada for the second time in three days and still can’t get into the Alhambra! Well, today I actually did get into the Alhambra, but not into all the good parts - the ones where you need a ticket. How was I supposed to know that everybody and their grandmother’s tour group would have all the available tickets reserved the one week I’m here in Andalucia? Oh well, I’m not too disappointed since I have been lucky enough to see lots of other really cool architectural and cultural sites on this trip. But for future reference, book your ticket to the Alhambra in advance!

I’m back in Seville for the evening and will be leaving for Lisbon tomorrow afternoon. No more disappointments…
