Granada

So I went to Granada this weekend and I took my skip day off on Thrudsday. We took a five hour train ride over and it was SO long, but the landscape was ok. So I tried to sleep most of the time. When we got there we walked around and found a great place to eat which we got a three course meal for 10 euros. I had Paella and it was the best I had so far. Granada is definatly different from what I've seen and the people aren't as in such a rush. The next day we walked up to the Alhambra in the morning at about 9 and took time seeing the sites when we got there. There was a palace to see, a fort, many gardens, and Charles the 5th's palace. It was very impressive my favorite part was the general life gardens which were really beautiful. Everything was pretty, but my favorite was the garden part. The palace was not as impressive because you had to pay to get into a museum and I wasn't going to do that when ticket in were 12 euros. The buildings were very pretty and I enjoyed staying were we did, we were close to the Alhambra which made the walk up a little more bearable. The train ride on the way back was much better because we didn't have to stop as long. The Nazarines was beautiful there were intricatly detailed walls with moorish architecture of course lots of tourist in all my pictures. We returned from Granada around Sunday and took the train to Toledo the same day to see it again.
