In 1985 the old city of Segovia and its Aqueduct were declared World Heritage by UNESCO. Within the environment of the old city, stand diversity of historic buildings both civil and religious, not just catholics but also Jews, like the district that served this minority, which commemorates the different cultures in the city.

I have been really busy, our furniture finally arrived and we have been unpacking for a while! Here are the pictures from the beautiful Retiro Park, the largest park in Madrid, Spain. The park belonged to the Spanish Monarchy until the late 19th century, when it became a public park.

This is me! This is not my best day! This is during our flight to Spain at the Casablanca airport. I managed to get sick right before we left which meant not to be able to sleep for 7 hours in the plane, having my face all plugged up and battling a big sore throat....
