... they thought they should probably not do that, as it may damage it. The streets were the usual narrow cobbled ones, but there was also a Patio competition on, and so there were lovely patios decorated with hanging pots of flowers, and all laid out beautifully, which was very twee. We had lunch in a local café, with sangria; I had Jamon serrano (cured ham), a local specialty which was very salty, and Rochelle had Spanish omelette with ...

... and fascinating! Then a visit to a superb Sephardic museum (Sephardic = Spanish jew) including a special exhibit on women of letters. Córdoba was one of the last Muslim strongholds before they were finally ejected from Spain in 1492. One can see their influence in the architecture (mostly Moorish arches), the food, the history and, of course, in the Spanish language (words that begin with the prefix -al such as algebra). The ...
