26 Paseo de Ezequiel Gonzalez Segovia, Castile-León, Spain and Canary Islands, 40002, 921-437-462
We are starting the long drive across the country today. First stop, Segovia, a town just north of Madrid. We are staying at Hotel Los Arcos for a night, and then its time to fire up the car again!
Segovia, Spain cmalin
... Disneyland with all the tourists bustling around. We grabbed a map at the tourist office and a snack at a nearby café, and then work our way up towards the main Cathedral and Castle. All of our navigation skills combined found us lost on side streets with laundry hanging out windows to dry. I would not fail as the leader so I marched ahead and located the correct street leading to the fortress wall and stairs to the other side. The daughter ...
Segovia, Castile-León, Spain and Canary Islands hippietraveler... a distance - Disney fashioned the Fantasyland castle after this virtually impregnable castle, which, together with moat, really looks the part. The tour is worthwhile, and was popular with large groups of school kids and pensioners.<br><br>We made our way back up to the Plaza Mayor and entered the massive Cathedral which was incredible. The sheer size of the church which has flying buttresses, a large dome and steeple, and a unique cloistered outdoor garden dating from 1525, is ...
Segovia, Castile-León, Spain and Canary Islands kevino101... a walk around town and try to find wi-fi again. I, opted to take a nap in the car. My knees were killing me. After a bit of a walk, Conrad came back to the car and joined me. So, we flew thousands of miles, to both take a nap outside of a 12th century castle!! It was a really good nap too! At 6:30 pm we decided to drive around and explore, while killing time waiting to hear from our host. When we hadn’t heard from our host by 8:30, we ...
Segovia, Castile-León, Spain and Canary Islands thematts... tossed a bat following a World Series Game 7 Walk-Off Home Run (a la 1988 Kirk Gibson and his fistpump) just tosses the plate on the floor, letting it shatter everywhere beneath our feet. While I was for sure shocked, I actually couldn't stop laughing, perhaps due to the fact that some girls were utterly repulsed as I fully enjoyed this semi-mythical yet historic tradition that defined this restaurant. I mean, come on, GO PIG or GO HOME ...
Segovia, Spain jakester21... I suppose those were the days when people thought they could buy their way into heaven! Anyway, after touring the cathedral, we walked to the other edge of town to tour the castle (alcazar). I've included pictures of it. Originally a fortress, the Alcázar has also been a royal palace, the site of Philip II's wedding to his fourth wife, Anne of Austria, and more recently a military academy. In the upper part of the city, the oldest ...
Segovia, Castile-León, Spain and Canary Islands dineymarie... kein Problem eine zu finden und ich war zum ersten Mal stolz auf mein Spanisch. Denn die alte Dame, die mir das Zimmer vermietet sprach natürlich nur castellano, doch sie verstand sofort was ich wollte. Also für ein Dach über dem Kopf reicht es allemal (naja, vorübergehend, die WG-Suche hat ja noch nicht begonnen). So nun habe ich aber lange genug einen Fuss vor den anderen gesetzt, dass interessiert meine Leserschaft wohl kaum alles (sorry, aber da müsst ihr durch. Es wird ...
Madrid, Spain kusa... the map was simplified!) and running and asking I finally made it back to the train station with 10 minutes to spare before the next train. There I saw Shang standing there on the platform. It turned out that while I was in the souvenir shop in Alcazar he went to the tower ...
Segovia, Spain viproIn aller Fruehe mache ich mich auf den Weg zum Flughafen. Da ich mein Gepaeck am Vortag in der Gepaeckaufbewahrung abgegeben hatte und dummerweise nicht darauf geachtet habe, in welchem Terminal ich ueberhaupt angekommen bin, musste ich mich erstmal auf die Suche nach meinem Zeug machen. Dazu muss man sagen, dass der Flughafen in Madrid vier Terminals hat, die durch Shuttlebusse miteinander verbunden sind, das verdeutlicht ...

Segovia, Castile-León, Spain and Canary Islands spirityufo... en la misma Segovia. <br><br><br> Lo primero que hice fue caminar desde la estación hasta el centro mismo de la ciudad por donde pasa el acueducto. El acueducto es como una cicatriz que cruza la ciudad y es impactante ver el estado de conservación del mismo, tiene más de 2.000 años y está impecable. Pensar que fue todo levantado a mano y no tiene concreto por ningún lado ...
