Regalos de las Calles

Daily Drena: You can tell a tourist by the smell of his/her shoes.

We’ve had many experiences in Granada, but one we’ve left out continues to be daily amusement for us. Many people have dogs, and all these dogs leave presents on the cobblestone. Each day we leave our apartment, there is a new present to be found on our 5 minute walk to school. The first time we pass, it’s whole. The 2nd time it might be scuffed a bit. The 3rd time it has a good chunk out of it, and by the 4th it is usually completely squished. By the next day, it’s nowhere to be found. Other than this, the streets are actually quite clean.

We both have succumbed to the locals’ gifts early in our trip, but learned quickly that if you want to look up and around, you’d better be extra careful.
