The Stairs

Sometimes, while walking from my apartment to the house of some older friends, I pass a set of stairs wedged between some buildings. Purple flowers hang over the right wall, and the staircase is divided by a fountain near the top. I'll share a picture later, once I've gotten some batteries for my camera. It's really beautiful.

I finally climbed them last Monday with a friend. At the top of the stairs is the Biblioteca de Al-Andalus, which, according to its website, is part library, part cultural center. Its goal is to advance knowledge about Arabic and Arab culture in Spain.

It's a pretty area, and I'm glad I took the time to explore it.
