I'm afraid it's going to be all Spain all week.

We arrived in Cordoba on Saturday afternoon and immediately started walking around. Southern Spain is very, very sunny and it was odd because our brains thought it was still early morning. Powering through, we spent two days wandering the highlights of Cordoba, the Mezquita and the Alcazar of the Christian Kings.

Like New York, the best thing to do in Spain is to just walk around. Eating ham and cheese tapas is the other. It's a culture that observes siesta and then stays up late. We sat beside whole families at the cervazeria at midnight some evenings. I was able to force myself to also take afternoon naps, some how.

More info in the captions and more pics tomorrow.
