Donde esta......?

I have now been in Granada for one week. I've already shared some things that I have learned, what I have NOT learned is where things are. I am seriously directionally challenged and Granda is like a maze! Even with a map it's hard to find places because there are some streets that aren't on the map and then street signs are on the buildings (if there at all). You would think that with the Sierra Nevada mountains it would be easier to nagivate which direction is North, South, etc, but the buildings are all so tall that you can never see the mountains. All of this pretty much equals me being lost and/or disoriented a large amount of the time. The good thing is that there are only about three main streets so eventually everything runs into one of those main streets and then I can always get back to my residence or my school (which are the important places). Good news though, I successfully went on a walking tour of the city today thanks to my Lonely Planet guidebook. By successful, I don't mean I never took a wrong turn, but I did see all the sights on the tour, successfully navigated a shortcut around a place I didn't want to see and I made it back to the school. I hope this is a sign that there is good navigating to come, but if it doesn't happen and I really get lost, hopefully the natives will atleast remember seeing a 5'9", curly-haired, redhead in white tennis shoes and they'll be able to find me.
