I've always wanted to see the Alhambra. Did they tell you all about how much Spanish culture was influenced by the Arabs? Did you know a lot of Spanish words came originally from Arabic? They're easy to pick out. Many start with "al" like almohada (pillow, like your Arabic tea pillows), almacén (shop), alacrán (guess? hint: you don't want to run into one of these) and the region you're in right now, Andalucía used to be called Al-Anadalus. Did i tell you i'm so jealous!
