"Aquae Granni", actual: Aquisgrán o Aachen
... Hay que ubicarse en el año 800 aproximadamente cuando ya no había imperio Romano y el imperio de los francos, había conquistado la mayoría de lo que conocemos hoy como Europa: Francia, Italia, Suiza, Alemania, Polonia, Lituania, etc etc. Carlo Magno, el segundo rey del imperio, fue como su padre defensor del Papa y de lo que luego seria el Vaticano.

Gawkin' at Aachen Two

We went into a couple more churches, pictured below and gazed at the array of colourful flowers, fruit and fish at the open air market. They bring to mind the delightful farmer's markets we have encountered almost everywhere we traveled. Its too bad that there aren't more of these in Canada, they are so ...
