One more small thing. Today was the release of the New 7 wonders of the World. In Granada there was a gigantic party to celebrate a potential appointment of the Alhambra as one of the new 7 wonders. 21 sites were nominated amonst these the Alhambra. The appointment was made by vote by people from all over the world. Alhambra reached the top-10, but wasn’t appointed, which clearly was a big dissapiontment for the thousands of people in the presentation.
And I wonder… among the winners were of course the Great Wall, Chichén Itzá (Mexico) and The Taj Mahal (India) all worthy candidates. But I am a bit surprised that Christ Redeemer and the Roman Colloseum won over Alhambra. But hey - the world has spoken. Anyways - it was fun to experience the presentation.
