Amazing Roman Era Walled City and Aquaduct
After we checked into our hotel (which is amazing) and showered and rested up a bit, we drove to the old walled city.

A cochinillo is a suckling pig, a baby pig if you will, which cannot exceed 14 lbs or be older than three weeks.

This was without a doubt, without any reservation whatsoever, the BEST pork ...
