¿Are we in Rome? ¡No, Just Tarragona!
¡Buenos! So we only spent one night and one day in Tarragona, but it was as if we had been transported thousands of years into the past. After we FINALLY managed to find the hotel, we spent the next day walking through the old city which is chock full of old Roman architecture. Some highlights: a defensive tower, the entire city wall, and an small colliseum. We also saw an ...
