Candy

They had these great sour candies at all of the Paradores. We grabbed them every chance we got.

Bull burger

On the menu it said, "Hamborgeusa." I told Bill to ask what that was because it was "hamburger" but misspelled. Well, it was a bull burger which got us in to a conversation about what the burgers in the US are made of. Boy cows or girls? Bill ended up not liking it much.

Up the hill!

Even after all those stairs we still had to hike up the huge hill to the Parador.

Walking

To get to town we had to walk down the same small, steep road we drove up to get to the parador.

Walking around

We bought the tickets for the tour but it wasn't for a couple of hours. so we walked around, taking pictures and stopped for breakfast up ahead and to the left, in the bar.

Chapel and cloister

The bar is the old chapel and cloister of the convent. It was interesting drinking a beer with this overhead.

Hake

The first night we stayed at the Parador Bill ordered room service pizza. The guy didn't understand English very well and kept saying, "Hake?" Bill said OK. We had to call them back and tell them no Hake on the pizza. We didn't even know what Hake was. When we went to the bar, we saw Hake on the menu. It's fish.

Closed bridge

When we got close to the bridge there were tents on the far side and a lot of people. It also looked like they were keeping people from crossing.
