After our morning touring Madrid and the Prado we were off to Segovia.
Originally Celtic but then the Romans arrived...
They built aqueducts built to last
The cathedral was the last gothic cathedral to be built in Spain
I discovered a delicious chocolate shop...I had a raspberry one.
They were ready for Easter
The cathedral
The alcazar, castle, here apparently inspired Walt Disney for the famous castle in Disneyland.
It really is everything a castle should be. Queen Isabella, who was Columbus' benefactor, lived here.
Lovely tile work...
Beautiful ceilings
Paintings...
Looking down...
On the way home we saw storks nesting. Sue got a great shot!!!
That evening we had pizza in a shopping area just near our hotel, with a couple from our tour group.
