There is also a Picasso Museum in Barcelona which I easily entered without a reservation in late May last year. YMMV.

Marisquería Liñan is my favourite, only fresh seafood from the day so is better to go early in the afternoon to get nice but cheap food.

No english spoken I think, in fact I´ve never seen any tourist there

I wonder if my 'rural Mexican' Spanish will even be understood. English may be better.

Now thinking of taking the train..Bracelona to Sevilla. But my big QUESTION is regarding the ALHAMBRA...We are wanting to go in on either a Sunday or Monday. Both dates in mid-May. There is morning availability on the Sunday only. With time slots to see the Nasrid Palace at 9:30 or 1:00 or later. The morning is popular, but it's what we need. So, what time should we book the Nasrid Palace? In the beginning or towards the end of our day? Or if, anyone wants to give us a little itinerary for a mid-May morning entrance, yes please Thanks!

I would book the earliest time I could for the Nasrid Palace. You can visit all other parts of the Alhambra anytime (once you are inside). In contrast, you can only ENTER the Nasrid Palace during your specified time slot -- but you can stay as long as you want. So entering earlier gives you more flexibility.

I love how friendly and understanding and helpful most Fodorites are. We're all human and not perfect and having the support of most of you all will help make my trip amazing. Thank you again

Glad you were able to book it -- I'm sure you'll find the Alhambra a special place!

Thanks, I'm excited about this and the whole trip. It's been a long time coming. We booked it two years ago, but one of our party was diagnosed with cancer and we had to cancel. She's alright now, after a long medical adventure. And we were really thankful for cancellation policies and flight insurance. When people ask, "Is it worth it to buy it?", I say YES! It's usually cheap and if you are half way good at paperwork, and are patient, it's not that hard to make a claim. Thanks again!
