Pictures






I just realized that i can put up pictures! Sorry Sally , I don't have any pictures of the bull ring yet, but soon! These are of a cathedral and area in Toledo. So old! How did people ever build things so perfect and so strong back then?? In one of the pictures you can sort of see the last supper scene sculpted into the church. Toledo (at least the old part) is built on a hill/mountain.. surrounded on three side by a moat.. because it's built on a hill.. the city looks like it's built on a half sphere.. like on top of a turtle's shell or something, it's really cool.. and since there's a moat, they could only expand the city so far before building outside of the moat. It would have been such a climb to get into the city, that they built an escalator into one side! it's not indoors or anything, just is under an overhang. So you just take the escalator up and check out the view as you go!
