To The North!

Once again I'm on the road, this time to the north of Spain. My friend Caitlin, who is studying in Italy, came with me and Cassy, a friend from here in Spain. We had a FABulous time.


Zaragoza Our first stop was Zaragoza. A nice town and you can see all the important stuff in about half a day. - it has a beautiful old Arab palace and a large Basilica. It also was home to the Expo last year. That's the reason for all the frog pictures - they have them all over the place.
Semana Santa
Just in case you didn't already know, Spain is a very Catholic country and this week was Semana Santa - Holy Week. Everywhere we went, we saw signs of the holiday. Almost every town had large processions every night to celebrate. It's all very interesting - check it out online.
