Houses built into the cliffs |
There was a little sunshine mixed in with cloud and the odd splat of rain today, so we girded our loins and hopped on our bikes and went to explore the village/town of Calatayud. We went for a climb up onto the cliff tops to see the castle, biked around the little one way streets of the old town, before going back to our hotel where we lounged on white cotton sheeted beds, watching Spanish tv, reading, relaxing before the worst hamburger I have ever tried to eat was served up in the hotel cafeteria, and we retired to our room again. A very quiet and restful day, just what we all needed before heading on to Barcelona.

Vineyards glowing in the sunshine |

Hills in the distance |
One of the many old churches in town |
Old town and old walls, more houses in the cliffs at back left |
The main drag with beautifully trained lime trees |
