May 8th.
Today was yet another beautiful day. I put another memory card in my camera so I'm back in business. Today we left Portugal and went  to Ciudad Rodrigo Spain. This is another walled city with another opportunity to walk the city walls. This wall was more pedestrian friendly than the other two we walked. Their are very few tourists in this town so it was an opportunity to take pictures without a lot of people in them. After walking the wall and then around the town  we took a tour of the cathedral. Unfortunately photos were not allowed in the cathedral. It was quite lovely inside. We were allowed to take photos in the cloisters however. Here are some photos from today.
 
The Cathedral in Ciudad Rodrigo

There were quite a few stork nests in the town. Possibly a baby boom soon.

Plaza Mayor

The town hall. I guess they have the canons just in case those town hall meetings get out of hand.
