Segovia

---

Today we ventured to Segovia with school. An hour and fifteen minute trip north of the city. This city is representative of why I chose Spain. The beauty and history of the city is not only long traced, but very rich. The city has moorish or middle eastern influence. This can be seen in Alcazar, the fort and other architecture such as this. Also, this castle was the inspiration for Cinderella's castle in Walt Disney World. The city also holds the best remains of any Roman Aqueduct system. Can you believe that there is no cement holding it together! Just the blocks. The cathedral has to be the most beautiful church I have ever seen. The alter is crusted in gold. The ceiling is a tower of gothic inspiration. I'm so tired!!! Now I'm back here at the apartment and just chilling. Spain is the best!

The Aqueduct
Is it not amazing? ONLY BRICKS HOLD IT UP, NO CEMENT!

Enough said.

The Cathedral
If you think it's nice on the outside, you won't believe the inside. But no cameras are allowed to be used in there! Don't want to be sacrilegious.
