Do you hear the barking?

That would be my feet.
Wow... So this weekend has been pretty awesome. We took an excursion and there's about 50 of us all traveling together... which is really... interesting!? I really AM enjoying being with a lot of these guys and the experience of visiting new cities and regions of Spain... well, I'm loving it!  Though I wish I could have spent more time in Cordoba, but it was only that very brief afternoon. It was beautiful and I must return some time. We arrived Friday and get nearly two days in Grenada.  It is an unbelievably beautiful city and the food is amazing, amazing...  just in case I didn't put enough emphasis on that, the food is amazing! Somehow in a group of 50... I've managed to go off on my own, which is kind of funny because now that I'm actually traveling with other people... the fact that I went off by myself is kind of hilarious.  So yesterday we went to the mosque in Cordoba.  Then when we got to Grenada, we went to see some flamenco dancing last night.  Omg... it was intense! Today, I just got back from a tour at the Alhambra and the palacio. What an incredibly beautiful experience! Afterwards I meandered back to the hotel and bought some souvenirs from a store ran by the artisan that made the products.  I stopped to watch him and talk for a while - it was an amazingly good time!  but... I was stopping for about 2€ of postcards and left with about 85€ of his work! Then off for a 3pm lunch.  I was semi-hijacked by the waitress to eat at her restaurant.  I must say it was the happiest of hijackings!  Sangria, olives, paella, gazpacho,  chicken in a garlic sauce... with perfectly cooked french fries, and watermelon for dessert! So. Full.  Someone's going to have to roll me home now!!  Here are a few collages of my weekend!
