Granada, Spain (Day 2)

Took a 1.5 hour flight from Barcelona to Granada. With much anticipation of seeing abundance of orange trees in the south of Spain, I encountered this colorful tree soon as I got off the bus from the airport. I find out after the trip that people do not normally pick the oranges off the tree, because they are known to be very sour & bitter. They may be unpleasant to the palate, but exude a sweet, fruity aroma that makes south of Spain so unique & charming...

We were so happy to see Paseo De La Sabeca, a street where our hotel was located. However, we weren't so thrilled soon after finding out that there is a steep hill we had to climb before we reached our final destination for the day.
