While based in Seville, we took a bus tour to Granada and the Alhambra.  
Being with a tour group has its advantages and disadvantages. We didn't 
have to drive, deal with multiple forms of public transit or hassle with 
the labyrinthine ticketing procedures. And we had two wonderful, 
informative guides. But we were always in a large group of people. 
Getting a decent picture sometimes involved maneuvers worthy of news 
photographers at a major event, which went against my usual code of 
politeness. Even so, I still sometimes had to clone out a person who 
pushed in front of me just as I tripped the shutter, or do a Hand of God 
burning-in.  I guess I'll never work for Reuters.

The "old town" is built on a very steep hill.  Let's start there.

Tea, anyone?

The Alhambra from Old Granada. We ate here, with approximately this view.
