Food is everything we are. It's an extension of nationalist feeling, ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It's inseparable from those from the get-go. Anthony Bourdain The day started easy enough in Valencia. We hailed a taxi and headed toward the railway station. We claimed our Prius and slowly pulled away from the lovely city of Valenc ... read more

Tickets to Alhanmbra were sold out
A few years ago I went to Spain for a week. One of the places I then wanted to go to was Alhambra. But I then learned that I should have booked the tickets a month or so in advance. When I tried to book they were sold out. I didn't dare to go there and try my luck in the morning so I eventually decided not to go to Grenada at. But it is high on the agenda next time we go to Spain. Caminito del Rey is another place that I wanted to go to on that trip but where tickets were sold out when I showed up. That's also high on the agenda for next time we go to Spain. /Ake

Alhambra sold out
It is one of those places you need to arrange for tickets in advance. Fortunately, right now not many people are traveling so you only have to book a few days in advance. We loved going to the Palace at night. Granada is a nice town.
