UP IN THE MOUNTAINS - ALHAMA DE GRENADA

SATURDAY 13th AUGUST

  We decided to set off on a journey of about an hour and a half each way up into the mountains to visit a town located on the edge of a gorge called Alhama de Grenada, which derives its name from the thermal baths located there, "Al-hammam" being the arabic for the baths.
  Immediately upon arrival Leia was sick in the car, which took a while to clean up, but she made a rapid recovery!  A tour of the town yielded a view of the gorge, the local church and an old Moorish castle as well as Constitution Square, but we never made it to the baths!
A view down into the gorge.
Moomee!!!!
All in step.
Ice cream break.
