I last updated a few days ago when we were in, or rather near to Granada and our intention was to visit the Alhambra
Feb 13th, day 20 dawned cold, dull and overcast, but we wrapped up and took the bus down in to Granada. After a couple of hours wandering around looking in shops, we had a coffee and caught the bus back. After lunch we drove down to the local Lidl and back again, exciting stuff eh !! We met a really nice couple of Brits, Rob and Jan Jones (well Welsh anyway) on site who were desparately trying to catch up with the rugby, but because there was a pretty good (paid for) wifi system, they watched it on our laptop computer and we shared a bottle or two in their van later on in the evening.
Feb 14th, Valentines day. After a night of heavy rain, the day dawned wet and 'orrible. Sue and I exchanged cards, had breakfast and watched the rain, checked the weather forecast and decided to write the rest of the day off. Rob and Jan popped over to say ta ta and return a couple of camping books prior to their onward journey to Malaga.
Feb 15th Alhambra day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This much anticipated trip started off flamin' wet and cold, but we took the bus down into town and after a coffee, we took a taxi up to the Alhambra palace. The experience defies description. The place is more than we could ever have imagined, we had several hours of jaw dropping delight. The rain even stopped and the sun came out. The pictures do not do it justice, but the memory will last us a lifetime
We had to stay over for another night, which brings us to today:
Feb 16th, day 23 and we are in Almerimar
We got up this morning and the temp in our van was 3c. Enough is enough, so we have scooted off to the coast and are now spending a couple of nights on the harbourside in the town of Almerimar and the temp was 23c in the van when we arrived here.
