I was supposed to meet my friend at 1:00. I gave myself an hour for the 20 minute walk so that I could get lost (in my usual fashion). I found this sweet bridge. "Escalinta de fotografa Alfonso" it lead straight to the cathedral and royal palace.
The royal palace from atop the cathedral:
Of course, the inside of the cathedral:
Rolando took me to a hole in the wall cider house for lunch. Here is the guy pouring the sidra...you gotta pour it just right for the right flavor. I love that he smiled for the picture!
One last walk by the cathedral on our way home for a picture. Good friend Rolando that I met on the Camino de Santiago.
I caught a ride to Murcia with Anna's dad, Pepe. It was about 3 1/2 hours. He and his wife Anna live just next door to grandma in la huerta. They built this really nice house here and invited me to stay for dinner and stay the night. Typical Spanish dinner complete with gambas, jamon, bread, fruit, veggies, rabbit and vino! Made me feel right at home again! Plus I got to catch up with Alicia-Anna's sister, who I haven't seen since June. 1:30am now...another long day and I'm ready to sleep!
Hi Anna.. enjoy very much your blog! What a beautiful Cathedral--inside & out. I esp liked the fella pouring the drink..he is talented. Ha.
