Toledo III

Alot of the museums/monuments were closed or under construction while we were there. After the cathedral and a nice lunch we enjoyed the Museum of Santa Cruz (Pat was looking for El Greco paintings). It was a challenge to follow the map through the maze of streets, so after a while of trying to find open attractions, we just relaxed and walked around, soaking up the city, stepping in random large churches, trying local pastries (marzipan), pausing for pictures down alleyways, taking pictures with statues, and eating tapas and drinking Sangria in the open square while contemplating a nearby political rally/protest. Good times!











Behind Shari and I you can see the remnants of an ancient bridge over the Tagus river.



















Here, you can see local grafitti. Pat, the camera loves you!
