Eurotrip 5, 2016 – Day 31, First day in Granada…

Standard

Our first full day in Granada and the morning was spent chilling at the campsite. It was quite cold last night with a low of 7 degrees celsius but the day soon warmed up a high of around 31 degrees in the centre of town.

We took the bus, which stops just outside,  from the campsite into Granada in the afternoon. The price is 1.5 Euros for a single ticket and the journey to the Palace of Congress takes just 20 minutes.

Carerra del Darro...

Carerra del Darro…

We visited Carrera del Darro which is one of the oldest streets in Granada and its name is given to the entire left bank of the River Darro.

Carrera del Darro is one of the most scenic walks in Granada. To the right of the River Darro, it is crossed by two brick and stone bridges (Cabrera and Espinosa), which link Carrera del Darro with the neighborhood of the Churra. It runs between the river, the forest of the Alhambra and the Almanzora, which extends up the slope of Gomerez. The street dates from the seventeenth century.

 

Dobla de Oro...

We are still trying to find out what the Dobla de Oro is.

 

 

Evening was another BBQ and despite retiring indoors due to rain, the shower lasted only a few minutes.
