Put Grenada on Your Bucket List!

Well excuse my ignorance!  We really knew nothing about Grenada before coming to Spain. If you haven't been here before put it on your bucket list!  And for those of you that have visited, I hope it brings back great memories.  A beautiful city surrounded by the Sierra Nevada national park and mountains.  We arrived to snow on the mountains, sun shining and 21 degrees.  Grenada is known for its tapas and the outstanding Alhambra!  A collection of palaces, fortifications and gardens in a beautiful calm surrounding.  There is a definite Arabic presence and a bit of a taste of what is in store for us when we visit Morocco.
