Alhambra 2

We hope you enjoyed the Suffolk branch's post from Brittany as much as we did. It just goes to show what a nose for travel us bears have; we get everywhere. In fact, while the Suffolk branch were sunning themselves in Brittany, we were away on yet another Norfolk branch adventure, but before we reveal more, it's back to the Alhambra and another stunning picture to start us off.

Often when we tour round historic sites and old monuments, we begin to flag quite quickly as we get culture overload. Not so with the Alhambra - we remained bright eyed and bushy tailed for many hours drinking it all in.

This was because there was so much to see and so much variety. After visiting the palaces, we investigated the Alcazaba (great name!) which was the military fortress.

It was grand from the outside and also on the inside ...

The architecture was very different to that of the palaces, as you would expect. Climbing to the top of the tower gave us some views to marvel at ...

At the best of times Gio can't help being a bit boggly-eyed, which is part of his immense charm, but even he had to boggle more than usual ...

... and we still hadn't got to our favourite bit yet. Pictures coming soon!

Lots of love George, Yorkie, Gio and Pedro xxx
