Córdoba

Gorgeous flower-filled patios

Mezquita-Catedral

Next stop on the itinerary was the ancient Moorish capital of Spain, Córdoba.  This city has the beautiful Mosque-Cathedral, an old palace for the kings and queens, a large Jewish quarter and beautiful winding streets with whitewashed buildings covered in bright flowers in blue flowerpots.

We spent two and a half days just wandering the streets of this beautiful city.  It was so easy to get lost in the city and discover more tiny, twisty-turny streets.  The city really has an old city feel with the cobblestone streets and beautiful old buildings

All of the photos are stolen from Abby because my camera had died and I forgot the charger.
