Day 22: Food Makes Everything Better!

Our train didn't leave until noon today so we took a quick walk around the town before we had to head off to the station. Everything was going smoothly until we got into Granada. When we arrived we decided that since we were already at the train station we should pick up our tickets for Valencia. Unfortunately, as we soon discovered, the only train on Wednesday leaves at 10pm and gets into Valencia at 5am! We brainstormed a few other options of what we could do instead...but nothing really seemed to work! So it will be a little inconvenient, but what can ya do!

Now we had the task of getting to our hotel. There were about 15 people waiting for a cab (with no cab around) so we decided to take the bus. We soon realized though, that the hotel had given very bad directions on their website. The bus number, the connection and the bus stop location were ALL wrong, so after attempting that for about 30min, we ended up just taking a cab! Our hotel is a little far away from the city centre but its right beside the Alhambra (the main tourist attraction here in Granada that we are checking out tomorrow!)

We relaxed at our hotel for a bit and then we took the bus into town for dinner where things FINALLY started going our way! We ate our hearts out- 3 courses for 13.50€ and the food was amazing! Definitely our favourite meal so far this trip! After dinner we "waddled" around for a bit, but soon headed home to bed.


Love, Dianna
