Medina Sedonia

This month, our Spanish adventure outing was a day spent in this quaint village of Medina Sedonia. It was also the last day with Grandma and Grandpa here. The views were awesome, the weather was pleasant, the food was good and the uphill hiking was a healthy start for my postpardom weight loss plan.

After hiking to the top of the hill, above the city, to explore the old castle ruins, we entered the Catholic cathederal and then climbed up about 100 steps, in a tiny spiral staircase, to this bell tower!
The views from the castle ruins went on for miles. This ancient city was very stratigically placed to keep the castle safe from the enemy forces.

The children had more fun watching the ants and other critters on the old stone walls. The restraunt where we ate lunch is seen right between thier heads. (the burgandy canopy area)
We were welcomed into the city by this headless Roman statue fountain.

Working our way up the city walls...
