12:37 (1:37 Spanish time)

Well, my travel plans for today have gone a bit ¨pear-shaped¨, to quote my English friends. That is to say, they´re messed up and I´ve got to figure out what to do next.

In retrospect, I should have gone straight to the port and headed for Spain. But I forgot about the one hour time change between the countries, and counted on getting a ferry without having to wait too long. Even as it ended up, it should have worked out, except the ferry was 1 1/2 hours late leaving.

I had spent a pleasant hour sitting in the café waiting for things to open. Eventually, I decided I should head down to the port to buy a ticket there, where offices would already be open, as by 8:20 am the Transmediterranea office downtown showed no signs of life. I made it to the port easily enough, but I had just missed the 8:30 ferry and was told the next one would be at 11.

Now I won´t arrive until 4pm local time... and my train will have left at 3:05! Maybe I can get to Granada tonight?
