Our last stop was Granada. I drove the car all the way up from Gibraltar. We stopped in Marbella for a dinner in a restaurant on the seashore recommended by our Lonely Planet. That was nifty. Wonderful fresh fish and seafood with excellent service. Real dining experience.
We arrived to Granada late in the night, parked the car in the city center and found a hotel around midnight or so. They we went out for a drink in a local Mojito-Bar, where special mojitos and other cocktails are done in a most professional manner. (Mojito is an originally Cuban highball (mixed drink)). That was successful! We both liked it very much.
The day after we picked up our tourist passes from an office and went up to where the Alhambra is by a bus. After getting our tickets to the Alhambra we ate in a restaurant some goat and gaspacho soup. Alla ate torilla, as usual.
The Alhambra is a beautiful garden with Alcazar and palaces inside. We saw the Nasrid Palaces, the Generalife, and of course the Alcazar itself. Must be said that it's very nice, however I had the feeling that Sevilla's Alcazar is much better maintained and renovated.
On our last day around noon I drove to Malaga, where we took the flight to Zurich and then home.
