Granada: One cough at a time

The highlight of Granada begins and ends with the Alhambra. The Alhambra was build by the Moors as a palace and stronghold back when the Moors were the top dogs. Of course the Christians eventually became number 1 and turned the place, or at least some of it, into a church. But that doesnt matter in this case because it still shows its Muslum roots and is pretty cool.

Here are some pics of the inside and outdoor gardens below.

Other than that we didn't see much of Granada because I came down with a bad cold and spent much of the time napping. From what I can tell it is a cool city. Maybe someday I will come back?

They sure do love their water at the Alhambra. Though truth be told I like it too.

....but if they messed up they ended up in the dungeon. These stairs lead to the "jail" below.
