I apologize for not posting yesterday, I had a busy day and a very sensitive internet connection, so I decided to wait until today so I could post at the University. Alright..vamos.
This past weekend, our group took a trip to Toledo. No no, not in Ohio. So try and resist making a joke. According to our tour guide, Fernando, Toledo is a city that has three cultures integrated in it's history: Christian, Judaism, and Arabic. All three of these cultures have fought over the years to gain control of the city, so you can see pieces of each spread throughout the city. They are also famous for making swords.
We did the basic touristy things, but I enjoyed all of them. My favorite by far was the Cathedral. It was beautiful, I tried to take a picture of it, but it was too big to fit entirely in my shot. Oh well. Hope you enjoy the pictures!
