We rounded out our time in Tossa by taking a day trip to different little towns about 100 kilometers in different directions. The driving wasn´t bad except for a little town called Girona. I think I went down a few streets that might not have been streets (some of the walkways look like streets and the streets walkways). But, I did ok. We found that Amanda is not real fond of driving on narrow streets with several hundred feet drop offs (it could be that or it could be that I was driving...we´ll say it is the first). The photo to the left is one of the corridors to an outside court yard of a 600 year old church complex.
We also took a final photo from the beach of Tossa. That was followed by what I have a hunch is going to become a more common thing...a photo of Amanda´s gnome away from home...
Granada is home to the famous Alhambra (http://www.alhambradegranada.org/) . Our neat little botique hotel (Roomates Miguelete) is located only about a 1000 meters (yards) from there. The hotel is a several hundrede year old mansion that has been converted into...obviously a hotel. It is comprised of very well maintaned and aged dark woods and tiles.
We had a good free breakfast and will be heading out to explore shortly. We have tickets to get into the Alhambra at 2:30. This is one of Amanda´s highlights of the trip. Hopefully it will live up to her expectations and I can get some great photos as well.
We are doing very well and are so blessed to have this opportunity. Thank you for your prayers of safety and I will post again in a couple of days.
God Bless.
