On Friday afternoon, we left for Granada. That we night we went the old Moorish part of town called the Albycin. Afterwards, we went to a Flamenco show. It was really authentic and interesting to see! At the end, a few students got to show their own Flamenco skills...or lack of Flamenco skills. Even our professor showed off his moves.Saturday was a free day. Some people did some sightseeing while others did some shopping and exploring. Granada is a beautiful city although it was about 105 degrees during the day.
Sunday was our trip to the Alhambra. The Alhambra is a giant complex and palace that the Moors built when they were in Spain from 711 to 1492. They surrendered to Ferdinand and Isabella during the Reconquista in order to preserve the beautiful palace. It was breathtaking and the views of Granada from the top were great too.
