Granada, Spain

Last weekend I took a quick trip down to the south of Spain. It's been sinking in more and more lately how lucky I am to just be able to jump on a plane and spend a couple days in a completely different country! It's not that I ever took it for granted really, it's just been something I've been thinking about.

Anyway, I went down to Spain with Chad and Laurie who are friends of mine from Denver who also live in England (but not London so I don't see them often). Chad had studied for a year in Granada so knows the city and the area well. It was so nice to have a tour guide and we were able to check out a lot of his old haunts. It was a pretty laid back weekend. The biggest thing we did was explore the Alhambra. Then we wandered around a couple of the areas of the city and ate tapas and watched the sunset.

On Sunday we drove back towards the coast and enjoyed some time on the beach! I always love places where you can be in the mountains and on the beach in the same day and the south of Spain is like that!

Enjoy the pictures...I only have one more European trip before I head home to the States for about 4 weeks. I'm sure I'll be updating from there about my holiday experiences in London and at home.

P.S. I am doing this at work since my internet at home is out of commission for a bit. The upload speed is WAY faster here so there are more pictures than usual (and in no particular order)!
