It’s hard to believe we got ourselves up and out the door by 5 AM but we did. We headed to Granada and our rendezvous with Myles, Nicole’s friend who was flying from LA to spend a week with us. Outside of Murcia we bought gas and by noon we were checking into Camping Maria Eugenia. The camp was on the outskirts of Granada near a village called Bobadilla and all around us were fields with the beautiful snow-capped Sierra Nevadas towering above.
At 4:30 PM we piled into the van to drive the 20 minutes to the Granada airport to pick up Myles. We were full of anticipation. His flight was an hour late so we were bursting at the seams to see him and when he appeared we all hugged each other like long lost friends. It’s to his credit that for the next week Myles fit right in and gave Nicole and all of us a whole lot of fun memories.
We had tried for a larger bungalow apartment but they were all taken that first night so we stayed in the van and arranged a private apartment for him and since it was warmer than our van, we had our first dinner together in his bedroom while the portable heaters blazed away.
