Rio Verde
... Green River) valley and back up again. The walk starts at around 1100m and descends to about 800m. Needless to say, the hardest part is slogging your way back up to the Carretera at the end! There are fine views across towards Navachica (the top still in cloud) during the early part of the walk and then a very steep descent, on a superbly constructed footpath into the Barranco de las Chortales. At the bottom of this, we arrive at ...
Collado de los Civiles

The walk back is by the same route - there is a lower alternative which would provide a bit of variety, but who wants to miss out on those views? I'm back at the football stadium just before kick off in the big match - Competa Under 11s against unknown oppponents. But probably not Real Madrid.

... morning for a guided tour of the Alhambra. We mustn't miss our time, as only approximately 6 000 tickets are sold per day and timed so as not to have too many through at any given time.
The Alhambra consists of a massive brick red fortress wherein are housed palaces and a citadel as well as an impressive garden. Some of the property dates back to the 9th century when the Moors inhabited and ruled the area. After the Christians invaded, the mosque ...
