A grand day out.

We've had a day out in the big city with friends!   We only normally go out when we need shopping or some other basic stuff, but as my birthday is nearly here we thought a day out would be nice.

We spent Wednesday in Granada walking and talking, sightseeing and window shopping,  stopping for coffee or wine and tapas,  as and when we liked the look of a bar and then enjoyed the sunshine and 'people watched' as well.

Had some lovely wines and tapas to match, ranging from queso y jamon  to  tortilla,  blue cheese drizzled with honey  then  paella, marinated pork with spicy vegetables and what always seems a very strange combination - a dish of salted nuts with the addition of jelly tots!

just finished a glass of wine and paella,  looking up at  the cathedral

Anyway the sun shone all day despite the forecast of possible showers during the afternoon and we had a nice relaxing time - totally different from our normal day when we seem to be always on the go.
