The evening festivities started early, as it is a holiday weekend in Granada, we knew that the tapas bars would fill up quickly, so we made our way downstairs (after a glass of cava which the hotel had sent up to Rita and Ranbir's room) for an 8:00 dinner. The Cremosa de Queso was the hit of the evening, and our waiter's excellent choices for tapas and dessert were, as usual, right on the money.

Onward to Granada - The Bhatia/Heinrichs Tour - Day 5
An early morning departure (for Spain), although since this is the last day before the change of hour, it was still dark at 8:15 in the morning. We decided to not stop at Ronda on the way to Granada, so that we could maximize our time with Rosa. The weather, which had been threatening to change for a couple of days, finally broke and we got out of Seville with just a few drops on the windshield. By the time we got to Granada, there was a definite nip in the air, and the threat of a light drizzle had us all grab our umbrellas as we walked out the hotel door with Rosa. Despite the gray clouds and a few drops, our exploration of Granada was a thoroughly enjoyable affair, complete with a stop at a tea house in the Albaycin and a visit to a couple of the old 16th century palaces.

Tomorrow morning: the group visit to the Alhambra and the afternoon to relax and take in Granada (and maybe a couple of churros).
