If you go to a supermarket, it’s cheaper—about 50 cents. In restaurants, it can cost more, sometimes 2 to 3 euros. It’s a good idea to bring your own water bottle because Madrid's tap water is safe and tasty!
The best meal I had this week was in Granada, enjoying tapas! I had croquetas filled with creamy ham and delicious fried calamari that was golden and crispy. They even brought a tiny dish of paella with our drinks for free! It was so exciting to taste a little bit of everything, and I loved how each dish had its own unique flavor. Tapas in Granada are a fun and special way to share food and experience the local culture.
This week, I went to a Zambra Flamenco show in Granada and it was amazing! Zambra flamenco is a special type of flamenco that comes from the caves of Granada, with roots in Romani and Moorish traditions. At the show, musicians played the guitar while singers performed emotional songs. The dancers moved with so much energy, clapping, stomping, and twirling their dresses. The small, cozy setting made it feel like a personal experience, and I loved how the music and dancing told stories full of passion and tradition. It was such a unique way to connect with the culture!
The most fun activity I did this week was visiting the Alhambra in Granada! The Alhambra is a stunning palace with beautiful gardens, intricate architecture, and amazing history. Walking through the rooms, I could see the detailed mosaics and carvings that tell stories from hundreds of years ago. The views of the city and the surrounding mountains were incredible too.
