Trip to Segovia


Yesterday, we took the fast train to Segovia which is a touristy medieval town. The speed train was fun (the first for Myron, Karis, and Stephanie) which covered 55 miles in 20 minutes. The train to Segovia is relatively new so we didn't see information about it in our travel books and was rarely mentioned on the internet but was very well run and cheap. We wandered the streets and then walked inside the "Alcazar of Segovia" which is a castle. It also famous for influencing the architecture of the Castle in Sleeping Beauty. Another memerable event in Segovia was eating lunch. They are famous for their suckling pigs. We each ordered a portion. They have roasted piglets and then cut them up into about 8 pieces. Marc and Karis had a hoof.

Is there mortar between those stones?
