059 Spain: Zaragoza

Spain: Zaragoza and El Burgo de Osma
I just love some of the names of places here

On loads of hill tops there are these giant silhouettes of bulls

 A hens night, Zaragoza style. This was such fun to watch. They had a band who played 'ditties'. The girls had to 'follow the leader' and repeat whatever was being done. Loads of giggling.
They had 'water' bottles in their hands but I don't think they contained water.
Then they went to the next square and continued.

Zaragoza is the home of Goya.

We went into the museum but his best works are not here. 

Lovely photo of the basilica.

They were having a tea party,

so I joined them. 

We stumbled across a museum dedicated to stained glass sculptures that were all lit. Best E2 we've ever spent.

The Alhambra. I think we'll see better in Turkey

 Zaragoza had a lovely feel to it. In the mornings it was very quiet but by 9pm the streets were packed. We navigated via the bus. Very little English spoken but everyone wants to help you. In one bar we heard someone talking Spanish in a very Geordie accent. He'd been living in Zaragoza for 10 years. Frank and he talked Football!!!!!

We are really getting into these small beers with a Tapas for E1.50
