Cordoba in bullet points

• My poor shoes! :o( These cobblestones have done a number on them. My feet! They feel like they're gonna fall off. I blame the rain.
• Arabic baths...aaahhh! Definitely the highlight of my stay. Nonstop rain for 3 days leads to misery and I was miserable....depressed....and then, the arabic baths appeared. The only open appointment was at midnight. Best appointment slot ever. Dead of the night, soaking in the dimly lit baths, nice hot mint tea, and of course, the massages. I chose the traditional amman bath, which I thought meant a longer massage, but was really about exfoliation. I think I would've preferred the massage with essential oils, but I aint even mad at the exfoliation one. It definitely helped me get right to bed and wouldn't you know the next day the sun finally came out? I can't wait until I can go back again...(the baths, I mean...Cordoba...not so much) They have one in Granada and Madrid. Gotta save up them coins...
• Tried typical Gazpacho, an andalucian dish. It's a tomato soup with onions and some...garlic? Oh yeah and it's cold. Cold, oniony, garlicky tomato soup....did I mention I don't like tomatoes? (unless it's ketchup, I love, love, LOVE me some ketchup!) This soup was interesting....tasted like...an oniony tomato. As for the glass of Montilla (wine typical to that region) shit was N-A-S-T-Y. No diplomacy here, it gets a "hayell no, never again" from me. Lawd.
• Also, I had a bad Mexican food experience. Like...never in my life...smh. I think one of the saddest things in the world is eating bad Mexican food. This was just a catastrophe. I asked for a beef burrito; Beef, onions and green pepper were listed as ingredients. But tell me whyyyyy....I had an onion burriot with tiny shavings of beef. I kept eating it thinking the meat would be further in...I can't even talk about it anymore. Every time I think about it I get nauseous. I almost threw up in that restaurant. Never again...clearly.
• Oh yeah, the Mezquita was cool. I found that I enjoyed the gardens of the Alcazar de los reyes cristainos a lot more. I'm just strange like that.

And that's my Cordoba experience.
