Letter to Granada

Dear Granada,

I love to wander in your streets. I took this picture a few months ago on Carrera del Genil. This beauty clad in Gaudi-esque colours was proudly announcing the arrival of summer fashion at El Corte Inglès. It's a little bit difficult to visit you in summer because of the heat but luckily I can refresh myself in your fountains. I loved your last summer festival. Though all tickets were sold out, still there were all these performances in the street. We loved the Senegalese ballet. We then lingered on Plaza Romanilla for a last drink. That night, the moon was shining above the palm tree in front of us. It was so romantic, I felt at last I found my new home.
At times though I wish your mayor would treat you a little bit better. I wish he would put an end to this furious building mania. You deserve better than those horrible flat houses which seem to grow everywhere.
Don’t you think ?
