Melia Granada Hotel

... did that. With the group I usually get a little frustrated and wish that I was off on my own, especially if it is the first time that I´ve been somewhere. Anyhow, I walked down the road to a plaza and the first thing that I really noticed about Granada was all of the trees. They were so big and they weren´t palm trees. From that point on I knew that Granada was going to have a different feel than Malaga. It was also neat seeing a kiosk in the ...

... Some bars have better tapas then others&#8230; here is a sample of tapas we ate: ham and cheese sandwiches with fries, potato salad, meaty stew, paella, bread with cheese, olives, fish fillet. Yum. By the way, I now am beginning to enjoy seafood and olives - two foods that I used to hate!<br><br>So, I love Granada not just because of all the ¨free¨ food, but also because it is so adorable and historic!! There are tons of little streets with shops and cafes ...

... in the center while a gypsie woman danced for money. From this point you could see all the Siera Nevadas intersecting and bordering the city. This mountainous landscape with the sun melting into pink and purple behind it sent my mind and eyes into awe. Below the whole city packed tightly together, shined their lights for the evening. From up there Granada looked like only one small cluster compared to the mountain range surrounding it. Atop a mountain straight ...

Ca me fait beaucoup de bien de me poser dans un endroit si calme, et rempli d'une belle énergie de vie! La vie simple de la campagne me plaît..

... even allowing for several hundred years of neglect before Washington Irving (yes , the author of Rip Van Winkle) prompted Spanish authorities to tidy it up and open it to tourism. It is a treasure of Moorish architecture. From the building construction, the ornate patterns on the stucco walls, the huge inlaid wooden doors, the views over the beautiful gardens with their water themes and the beautifully decorated ceilings it is simply a treasure. It is ...

... per la sua gentilezza e professionalità. Priego poi è bellissima. Ha un centro storico delizioso, tutto di casette bianche, con un labirinto di vicoletti meravigliosamente fioriti. Uno spettacolo unico. Altro che Calle de las Flores! Gli abitanti del pueblito ci scortano all'interno dei vicoletti, un vecchietto addirittura dentro casa sua. Questo sarebbe il paese perfetto per mia madre, che adora questo genere di cose, ma devo ...

... drack en öl i eftermiddagssolen på en uteservering och senare åt vi en fantastiskt god middag på en mysig restaurang. Imorgon skall vi besöka Alhambra och Generalife innan vi åker till Marbella. Goda nyheter: vi har fått vårt första barnbarn. Ylwa har fått besked om sin adoption. En liten pojke, född den 11 nov 2006 - 3 månader gammal drygt - väntar i Hanoi på att bli hämtad senare i vår. Han skall heta Axel, efter gammelmorfar!
