The Alcazaba with LB


LB got to Almería 2 weeks ago on Wednesday, April 11th to spend the weekend here and to head back to the states on Monday the 16th. I had to work Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday both in the morning and the afternoon, so our activity those 3 days was a bit limited, but we managed to do some cool stuff.

On Wednesday when LB got here all we ventured out to do was go to the grocery store. The rest of the day she just hung out at the house and got settled while I was working.

Thursday, however, we were able to see a bit of Almería. After I got back from school, we had lunch and then took off to visit the Alcazaba, the second biggest castle/fort in all of Spain built back in the 10th century by the Arabs who, at the time, occupied southern Spain. We tried to visit the Alcazaba last year when Audra was here but it was closed, so we were glad to get to go in this year. I've been here a year and a half and had never entered, so I was especially excited.

The weather was a little on the cloudy side when we first got there but it cleared up by the time we left. I took the above picture right as the sun came out.
