The Rain in Spain stays mainly...

..on the coast!  And thank goodness, especially since when Reeves and I landed in Malaga, Spain, it was overcast, raining and cold we were not too terribly happy about the beginning of our holiday. Our flight was right on time and we made it to the bus station toot-sweet, but that just gave us a couple hours to wait in the cold for the bus. We were both discombobulated from waking way too early, the bus station was a bit scary and dirty and we were having a hard time finding anyone that spoke English.  I think with all the stress of everything that is going on, at that moment in the bus terminal, if we could have just been back in Dublin, we would have both wished it!

We did, however, make it safe and sound to Granada, our destination around 4 pm after driving out of the rain into a beautiful sunny afternoon- just in time for lunch, Spanish style.  Just around the corner from our hotel was a lovely restaurant where we could sit and have a menu in English, at least for the first day when we were tired and grumpy.  It turned out to be fabulous and after we walked around for a short bit taking some shots of the full moon over this charming and romantic town.

The moon over Granada - no it is not a new Denny's menu item :)

We are now back in our hotel room and ready for bed like the old fogies we are - especially when people are just going out to dinner here!!  I really do love our hotel - more about that soon.
