Ola!
It´s bucketing rain, it´s 9oC (yes we´re feeling the cold)
Not only that, we´re living in a cave! www.el-abanico.com/ingles.html… and we´re loving it.

Have spent today swanning around the Alhambra Palace, which is rather impressive. However the highlight was, when standing in the Palace of Carlos V (a colosseum type construction with amazing acoustics), a rather large English tourist steps into the middle and rips out a rendition of a classic operatic number, and completely blew us all away…it brought a tear to your eye, seriously beautiful. And then he and his fat mates moved on and went back to being geysers…who´d have thought!

Daughter has such a story brewing in her head that I can´t wait until she gets it down on paper. She may even share it with you all, we´ll see. This is now a book in progress… stay tuned for publishing details!

Off to the snow tomorrow. Sierra Nevada. Not sure what to expect (other than white stuff of course). The drive itself will be hairy enough given that this is the first time driving has been attempted, on the opposite side of the road, for some time. Couple that with roads unknown, mountains unknown and bends unknown… an adventure it could definitely turn into!!

Until next time, adios!!

p.s. phone is working now, so it´s full textíng ahead!
