Barcelona to Zaragoza

---

Today we are heading out on the first leg of the Roberts/Nesdale tour of Northern Spain. We have travelled 3 hours northwest of Barcelona to Zaragoza which is halfway between Pamploma and Barcelona and is the capital of the Region of Aragon. During this drive we have travelled through ever changing landscapes from very cultivated areas and very baron area. Zaragoza is a city of over 2,000 years of history from the Roman, Moorish Jewish and Christian communities that have left their mark on this city. We have this afternoon walked the streets of the city and visit the Roman ruins, Palace Aljaferia, Plazza Nuestra Senora del Pilar then finished up with more walks of the city laneway and visiting many bars and restaurant enjoying the local tradition of tapas. What a great way to have dinner a small bite and drink in each place and then you move on to the next place.
