Time -again - to go to Segovia. This time from
the right terminal, so this time I succeed. Segovia is also about an
hours drive from Madrid og is best known for the aquaduct, that passes high above
city-centre. It's carnival-time in Segovia so a lot of children is dressed up and behaves
madly. There are very few tourists - this is out-of-season. And the toy-theathres are
playing - seems to be a very popular thing among kids around here. The town is very nice to stroll around - very beautiful - and much more than
the aquaduct.

Wednesday 8. march
Today I do something that is very rare to me - I visit a
famous art-museum - the world-famous Prado. And god knows this is not an area where I
consider myself an expert - but it is very impressing - and a lot of paintings. Some of
them are very famous - why some are masterpieces and others are not, I really dont know -
but thankfully you can always recall the masterpieces by the huge amount of people
gathered around them. Goya and Valázquez seems to be ghe Effenberg and Roberto Carlos of
this place. And if you dont care about the paintings you can always watch the people who
are her - 1/3 is tourist that read that the guide-books say they should go here - 1/3 is
the bourgoise that find it exiting to be here - and 173 are schoolchildren that has been
forced to go here and find it very very boring.
The rest of the day I just walk around in the city - now
there are no more "must-sees" around. |

Thursday 9. march
Back home today - this has been a great trip. Madrid was
exiting (and not very tourist-minded - which I like) - and Sevilla was fantastic. And I
have seen some great places around the city's as well.
And the weather - faboulous - sun all the time - not too hot
- when they have 25 celsius in Andalusia on this time of the year it must be HOT in
summer.
Plane back - back to the rain.
