I forgot this one: WT in the Way of Saint James (Camino de Santiago). This old way has an important role in teh development of Europe, and Logroño is one of the cities in this way...

Those are fantastic photos & I'm sure that WT had a great time visiting those wonderful places :-D

I'd like to go to Spain again one day. So far I have only been to La Herradura on the Costa Tropical & from there we visited Granada & the Alhambra.

Hi

11 march……
Traveller arrived in Goes

Goes was founded in the 10th century on the edge of a river.
In 1405 Goes received city rights so in the year 2005 we had a big party for 600 years Goes.
There are about 27000 people who live in Goes
In the insignia from the city there is a Goose …….. ( i have to mention since there is one person who sometimes call me a silly goose  )

I live in the south and the watertower is a symbol of south Goes.
It’s build in 1912 designed by Carl Francke and 63 meters high.
No longer in use as watertower.
Now there are some company’s in it.

The building on the right of the watertower use to be a hospital…………. I was born there………..loooooong time ago.
