Alhambra

Mummy's cousin Mick has silver hair like an old man,but he is still lovely.

We all got a bus together to go to a place called Mirador. It was a very little bus because it had to go up very windy, narrow little streets up a very steep hill.

At the top there was a beautiful view across the valley to the Alhambra and then the mountains which are called the Sierra Nevada. They are very high and we could see snow on them, but it was too far to go and play snowballs and build a snowman.

A long time ago Spain was ruled by some people called the Moors who came from Africa, and they built a beautiful palace which is called the Alhambra.

We went there today and Mummy and Daddy liked it, but it was a bit boring really because it is very old and there is nothing to do there like a swimming pool with a water slide - which is what holidays are supposed to have.

Mick's partner Susie came as well, and she is also lovely.
