Spain I: Granada (AlHambra)

*Late Entry (22-26 Nov 2013) - Citer 2 bulan lepas baru nak masuk blog. Mama update Granada dulu, nanti bila sempat mama update Malaga pulak ;)

Btw mama dah lama kepingin nak ke AlHambra, akhirnya tercapai jugak impian itu :)

Z di depan La Alhambra entrance

Booked flights and hotels 3 weeks earlier, yang lain2 tak sempat pun mama nak buat research n planning. Selalu kalau pegi travel tu, mesti mama dah siap2 kan semua itinerary, this time memang busy teramat. Hentam jer la.. Lagipun x plan nk jalan banyak tempat, just nak relax n most important is the Alhambra itself.

Flight from Dublin pukul 11.30am (Friday), keluar rumah around 9.30am, planning baik punya, supaya tak rushing di aiport. Sekali beg excess! Mama beli utk check in 15kg jer, tapi bawak 21.5kg (next entry on what we packed up for our travel). dah satu hal kena punggah kat situ. Cabin luggage bawak 1 jer sebab konon2 dah cukup ler kot. padehal boleh bawak 3. So memang tak muat di situ, end up we have to pay 100€ extra. Damn you Ryanair! Next time kena beli yang 20kg la.. (mama beli extra beg on our way back, so terselamat di situ)

There's no direct flight from Dublin to Granada, so we had to stop in Malaga. Ambik bus ke Malaga city, then another bus to Granada. Seharian perjalanan jugak la.. But it was worth it! Pukul 6 baru sampai Granada, so stay n explore the hotel jer la.. Z was fine during the journey. Naik flight pun relax jer.. Mama risau jugak sebab last naik flight was Nov last year. Takut dia panic ke apa. But Alhamdulillah, Z dah besar.. He really enjoyed the journey. Nak duduk sendiri and he was fine with the seatbelt (either in the flights, taxis or buses), tak perlu diriba mcm dulu dah :)

Alhambra Palace Hotel
Di Granada we stayed at Alhambra Palace Hotel. Mahal sikit, but really worth it. Only few meters from the Alhambra Complex. Mama pun tak sure whether it used to be part of the AlHambra or not. But all the decorations are very similar. Peninggalan sejarah Islam di Andalusia :). Sangat membanggakan.. (dalam masa yang sama, sedih jugak sebab Andalusia dah jatuh ke tangan Christian kan..)

Bilik biasa2 jer, maybe sebab mama ambik standard room jer kot (tak mampu nk ambik suite kat sini..). But all the decorations surrounding are amazing. Oh bilik air in our room pun sangat cantik sebenarnya.. And I do fancy their restaurant a lot!

The Hotel's restaurant

Sabtu tu memang diperuntukan khas untuk visit Alhambra. Tu pun dah rugi paginya, sebab mama boleh terlupa bawak credit card!! Mama dah book ticket online, tapi kena collect dekat Alhambra using the same credit card. Nak tak nak, kena la beratur beli semula. punya la lama beratur, dekat 2 jam kot. Haish rugi betul.. Nasib baik ler tiketnya tak mahal sangat.. Dapat tiket dah dekat tengah hari dah, so we went back to hotel, makan2 dulu. Pukul 2 baru masuk Alhambra.

Ahad pagi sempat la ambik bas hop on hop off, buat quick sightseeing aroung Granada City. Then check out, terus ke Malaga pulak (next entry). Some of the photos taken in La Alhambra. These photos doesnt really do justice. Mama upload sikit jer and malas nk crop betul2. In real life, MasyaAllah.. There's no word could describe how beautiful this place are..
