Ok so we left Madrid with plans to see Granada, Malaga, Cordoba, and Gibralter.
We arrived into Granada and instantly liked it. The historical center of town is very small and has an awesome antiquity feeling with narrow streets, churches, a lack of traffic, and the major moorish fortress/palace the Alahambra
In our hostel we met up with a random group of some dutch chicks, 3 aussies, a german chick who was really proud of being serbian as well, more germans, an Iranian girl, an awesome italian dude, and a not so bright chick from the states, she was nice though... We all ate dinner and drank togeather th efirst night, and got to talkign about waking up early to get Alahambra tickets as they are impossibel to get later in the day wihtout having reserved them prior to your visit.. They only let in 7000 people a day and only 1800 of those are none resrvation people.... When we woke up, everyone else was up too.. SOmehow we turned into a ragtag group of travellers...
We saw Alahambra then went back, we liked granada so much we decided to say fuck you Gibralter and your use of the pound and we stayed another night. We had a massive "gangsta style" as the aussies refered to it, dinner with everyone. The italian dude cooked some aweosme pasta(surprise?) and it was really cool becuase no one really knew anyone else before.... So yea good times.. Alahambra is also one of the most rediculously beautiful archetectural places of all time... In fact it was a runner up for the new wonders fo the world list, in case you wanted to know.. By the way the christ Redeimer is on that list, I have never seen it but how does the christ redeemer beat out the Haga Sophia, the eiffel tower, Angkor wat, and a list of other places cooler (im pretty sure) than the christ redeiemer.. basically the list is flawed and the Alahambra is sweet.. end of story
In malaga we were tired . We saw the Alcazar fort and the picasso musseum whcih was pretty bad ass. Malaga as a city dates back some 2600/2700 years to phonecians and shit so there was some cool stuff to be seen...
Now to Cordoba, then Madrid, then the glorious SD
Once more VuvuEnEU would like to thanks google images for pictures becuase we cant share ours.. as usual
Cheers!
