SEGOVIA
We then left Madrid and made the short (mountain) drive to Segovia – famous for its cobbled streets and amazing Roman aqueduct. ย This aqueduct was built to allow water to flow down into the town from the mountains. So impressive – nothing holding the stones together – blows your mind to think that things like this were built over 2000 years ago!
There was another amazing cathedral, and some very unusual pastries!!
SALAMANCA
We then made our way to our rest stop – Salamanca – a beautiful town by the riverside. ย We went for a stroll along the old Roman bridge and Kim spotted a local otter just relaxing!
Hi Kim & Rob
๐๐ปโโ๏ธYour adventures sound absolutely perfect and amazing with moments that take your breath away. ๐๐๐ผ
WOW!! The architecture in the buildings you visit is outstanding. The blue ceramic painted tiles at the station are just gorgeous! I really loved your Porto pad. Itโs so funky and cosy/romantic with the beautiful angular shapes of reflected light and shadows and not to mention being blessed each day with that most pretty ocean view. Good job with navigating those hilly windy roads Rob ๐ต๐ฑ๐. Youโre a brilliant hubby (NB. English accent required here when saying โbrilliantโ ) You both look so happy and relaxed – so good to see! love and miss you both. If your boys need anything at all whilst youโre away please let us know. Merry Christmas ๐ and lots of happiness for the season from Josh and Trish. XX
I am loving all the posts. The scenery is amazing. Happy Christmas to you both. Safe travels xxx
Thinking of you and hope youโre going really well and having lots of great adventures x Happy New Year ๐๐๐ผ
