Great pics Jim. Granada is high on my "want to go" list. Thanks for stopping by Giverny.
Your travelogue photographs are brilliant! You visited all the places we visited and certainly capture the "soul" of Granada.
I've always wanted to visit Spain - Granada and Alhambra in particular. Stunning!
Impressive palace! This place looks so intriguing. I'll have to check out your pages on Spain - it looks like it's on our list for 2007, but we don't know exactly where to go yet.
Granada is great! Again great photos make me want to head to Spain!!! Any chance you awere near Marbella? Kat
Thanks for dropping by... Granada is a city I could easily live in...
