The weather in Madrid continues to be hot and humid, so Teresa and her parents led us on a fun day trip to cooler temperatures. 30 minutes away on a high speed train lies Segovia, a charming little town north of Madrid that still has a Roman aqueduct standing.
In addition to the aqueduct, this small town has an amazing castle (Alcazar de Segovia) and a large cathedral. The castle looks like it was taken out of a storybook, complete with towers and a moat. The cathedral has more chapels around the outside of the sanctuary than any other cathedral I have seen.
It was a fun and enjoyable day, especially with a little cooler temperature.
