Granada

As we headed south we Stopped at Grenada the road from the coast up to Grenada is spectacular.
The city of Granada is placed at the foot, of the Sierra Nevada mountains We visited
The Alhambra, a Moorish citadel and palace, in Granada. It is one of the most famous items of the Islamic historical legacy that makes Granada a hot spot among cultural and tourist cities in Spain. The Almohad urbanism with some fine examples of Moorish and Morisco constructions is preserved at the part of the city called the AlbaicĂ­n.

We all went to see the Alhambra it is fantastic well worth a visit. I found an orange tree with little oranges, no one was looking I serendipitously plucked a small orange but it was not a good plan as it was very bitter, The next day we headed for Gibraltar.
