As soon arrived at Granada, the first event is a guided tour segway.
What is it? Well, a two-wheeled personal transporter, electric, silent, with high handlebars.
It operates with body movement: forward, forward (the greater the inclination of the body, the greater the speed), the body back, slow down. With the left hand turn and stop on both sides, turning away 90 degrees against a wall or wall to stop it. Gently, of course ...
Lido, no? If, for young people: I never secrete as much adrenalin!
In the initial test - less than a meter-all great! with the sole motto of "you always go through the middle of the street, the cars will stop to see them", Granada is mine! I told myself.
But: how are the streets of the circuit? With the small cobblestone floor, permanent banked from the margins to the center, no sidewalks, narrow, up and down to short intervals, in bunches ... maze! Divine
to transit as we did then, but not mounted in this strange creature, moreover, in a line down the middle of the street ... David, behind me and although my fear is bigger than yours, his voice calm and caring gave me directions. (The time came that protects the child's mother ...? Hummmm, I'll think about later.) While I, standing, his arms tense, helmet on head, thin, stiff, useless, barely breathing ... at times I could control and I said to myself: "aflojate, you barbarian!" but then stop at the intersection of streets cut my breath.
Meanwhile, the guide showed: "far away, the Alhambra, near here, the Albaicin ..." and walkers who had wanted to shout: "correct one if you value your life". I only watched, if each neuron pointed the next turn: back, if down, later on rise ... until a Moorish wall came to me and wanted to melt into his chest stone!! But nothing happened ... not a scratch ...
might have planted there and interrupt flag so amazing tour, but not abandoned, kept his feet on the segway and soul in a thread, all the way! And hour and a half!
This to feel pendeja ... Good old David
ended the inning with a professional and loving mother :"... the contrary: you dare to rise and, most important, followed to the end! "
Believe me: it was hard! I now tell it to finish exorcise segway the evil spirit that lived until shortly after me.
