A much quieter day today, after yesterday's exertions. Slept in till 9!, then had Skype calls from the kids before heading out for a late breakfast. Grand kids have all aged about a month, and we have only been gone for little more than a week! Elka is walking, Arch is a foot taller, you can't leave them for a minute. Finley thinks he might come to Spain on the weekend, or perhaps we could drop in on him.
We spent the day walking round the Albaizin, the old area of Granada. It is narrow lanes, cobbled streets, unexpected squares everywhere, cafés, restaurants, bakeries, full of lost tourists clutching maps and wondering if they will get out alive.
There is also a strong moorish/gypsy element here as well- I feel a bit like I'm back at Monash in the 70s with all these hippies wandering around under the influence of who knows what! It's a lot of fun, though, and crime doesn't seem to be an issue.
Off the beach and Frigiliana in the morning.
Go the Swannies!
PS incredible sunset tonight, while being serenaded by our Boy Band.
