Three hours, or maybe four, later, Janey and I arrive.
Funny part. We leave without a map! No map of the freeway, no map of Granada, nothing. Smart.
No clue how we got there, but we did - without getting lost once - I was very proud of us actually.
We part the car and begin to walk.
I ask someone to point us in the direction of the Alhambra and away we go - first to find the most AMAZING vegetarian restaurant ever! I had spring rolls stuffed with fresh quinoa and Janey has a quinoa salad and an amazing Mexican dish. I have no clue what it was even made from....something meatless though.
Then we set out on our way - passing little gypsy shops with lots of cool dresses and diaper pants (i will explain later).
And begin walking....and walking....no Alhambra to be seen.
And then I ask. The Alhambra? The boy says, the other way!!!! He gives me a look like I am crazy to have walked so far....
So in the other direction we go, and after finally finding an information desk, we are on our way!
Oh, by the way, everyone was telling us that it would be impossible to get in without booking tickets ahead of time, but guess what? We got in!!!!!
And OH MY GOSH. YOU HAVE TO GO. It is absolutely gorgeous. The gardens alone are to die for. Here is a sneak peak:
