Spain has continued to be amazing. Last week we visited Segovia. A beautiful small city about two hours away from Salamanca. The castle was stunningly beautiful, including a room with a ceiling painted out of gold. There were many street musicians performing entertaining music. On the top of the castle is a little well, where if you throw a coin in and make a wish, and the coin get’s stuck on a small ledge in the well, your wish will com true.
There is also a small garden, very tranquil, where a “Romeo and Juliet” type story had happened. A woman fell in love with a man of a lower class and was forbidden from seeing him. As she was very distraught, she threw herself off the garden walls, to a fall of 20 meters, killing herself.
