Ii Castillas Avila

... it's that crucifixion would really really really really hurt. Gothic sculpture and painting is famous for it's ultra-realistic depictions of Jesus on the cross, including very detailed wounds, blood, guts, and gore. I think I've really seen enough nailed hands and feet to get the idea that it was not a fun way to die.

After the cathedral, I ate lunch outside in a plaza and old people stared at me because normal people do not eat outside when it's in ...

... ugly and 18 euro. I decided to just deal since I had on a long sleeve shirt, jeans, and a pashmina. Luckily I had brought my umbrella! We then met at the gates to the city. The city walls are the most well preserved walls of any European city. They are really neat. We then walked to the Cathedral dedicated to San Salvador. Building began in 1091 and was the first gothic temple in Spain. The cathedral is very close to the ...

... thought of himself as superior to the Pope in all regards and fashioned the Spanish Catholic Church according to his own religious beliefs. I imagine that many people have spat or stomped on his grave during the year, but his loyalists maintain fresh flowers on his grave at all times. It is hard to explain how awe-inspiring and yet offensive the site is, but it certainly merits a visit if you are ever in Spain.

After our outrageous adventure in Santarem we were on the home stretch of our Pilgrimage. We were heading to Avila the home and birth place of the first female doctor of the church St. Theresa, and John of the Cross. We stayed and prayed in the church dedicated to her and walked around the town, it was a quick visit, and then we were off to Zaragoza.

Another week another country, so we headed on down to Spain for the weekend and as soon as we got in on Friday night we grabbed the car and headed to our hotel for the night. It was on the north side of town a bit out so we stayed in a 4* hotel which was lovely and cheap. The next day we jumped in the car early and headed off towards Avila didn't take too long on the ...

... comprei um potinho com umas bem escurtas e amargas (conta total 2,4€), muito boas. O outro lugar q também "está muy bien" é o mercado árabe, onde comi um doce de pistache (realmente o problema ñ sao os doces árabes e sim os q tem no brasil pra comer...), só ñ comi mais pq era 1€ cada... Mas enfim, ñ vou voltar pra residencia e jantar lá vou comer por aqui mesmo q parece mais interessante.

... s, q tem uam foto de um dos claustros aí) foi onde surgiu a Santa Inquisiçao... :S O primeiro inquisidor da Igreja Católica, Torquemada, tá enterrado lá. E a praça de Santa Teresa (q tem foto dela com o edifício de Rafael Moneo alguns post atrás) era onde ele queimava ou enforcava os infiéis (os judeus).

... they shared...See also her 6 children. · Where was I? Oh yes, Segovia. It's a pretty cool, typical European town, medieval of course with it's winding streets, alleyways and cobblestone roads. Also, the traffic in there is constant but the sidewalks aren't regulation like the ones in America. Emily and I had to dodge a few cars to avoid getting run over while we went shopping for souvenirs and exploring what we could in the one hour we had ...

... a bed for couple nights and ironed out any potential teething problems. You can imagine my horror when, upon entering the dorm a few hours later, I was punched in the throat by the SG's invisible, toxic, ammonia-emitting sidekick. Apparently showering is a futile exercise for the SG. I lay in bed and gagged for a couple of hours before falling asleep or succumbing to the fumes, I don't know which. Either way it was heinous. And the SG was there both nights too!
