Alhambra Envy

The Alhambra in Granada, Spain covers about 35 acres. There are dozens of gardens, halls where the reigning sultans greeted ambassadors, and richly textured and detailed architechture. It was the site of treaties, intrigue, happiness, murder and quite a bit of gardening. Books have been written about it, as it is one of the most magnificent and legendary palaces in recorded history.

I used to live in a studio apartment. I had some plants there, but one of them died. I once had seven people over for a chicken dinner, and some of them had to sit on the floor. My shower was cool... it had awesome water pressure. I don´t think I will be able to afford that kind of place in New York, though.
