We are a couple on the move. Follow and see where and what we are up to; occasionally it is a big adventure, but usually it is the daily, small ones that happen. Read, enjoy, comment. We would love to hear from you.

Passion Among the Cobblestones
I can feel the passion of Don Quixote, the religiosity of The Church, the confluence of multiple religions coexisting within this walled medieval city on a hill, which is almost surrounded by a river. We have been exploring for six hours and have visited the cathedral, the Military Museum, the museum of instruments of torture used in conjunction with the Inquisition; Becky bought marzipane de Toledo; we both bought fans, of course, and we are all exhausted. Have been laughing so much today as Apa and I struggle with our 70 year old bodies (OK, he isn't quite 70 yet) and Becky and Austin are both tired, too. Tonight Becky and I are going back to experience this stone and red tiled city under a full moon and special lights which recreate the medieval look of Toledo. Tomorrow we go to Salamanca. Kathy
