EXPLORING THE OLD PART OF THE CITY 7/28

6/28

We walked the whole day and ended up at the La Plaza de Castillo where we had a late comida. Callie loved the food!  She had crepe with vegetables.







 Afterwards we met a peregrino from Boston walking El Camino de Santaigo (the road to Santiago de Compostella).  More on that later, but I was able to do a quick interview of him!

Later, when we met up with The Voltas we went to a pastry shop called Beatriz that is famous for its treats. 

Then, we  walked to Saint Ignacio church and the sculpture of El Encierro created by Rafael Huerta in 1994. Later the kids played a pick up game of fútbol with random spanish kids and had a blast! 


There is usually a long line!


Sam loves this guys so much and the feeling is mutual!


One of my favorite memories...they thought Sam looked like a famous soccer player from Barcelona!


The story of St. Ignacious both inspires and fascinates me.
