Wrapping Up A Five Hour Tour. . .A Five Hour Tour!

Elena took us to see a couple of the famed patios of Cordoba.  You can buy tickets to see multiple patios, but with a professional guide we ended up not buying tickets, but leaving a tip.  One was a relatively small patio with a lemon tree, fountain, and many flowers.  

Next we visited a larger, famous Cordoba patio that had many flowers in baskets on the wall, fountains, small trees, and other flower baskets throughout.

Afterwards, we stopped at a small café for coffee and water, as we had been on the march for four hours.  It was a needed stop.

Elena’s last stop for us was the famous Roman bridge in Cordoba.  Originally built in the early first century BC, most of the current structure dates from the Moorish reconstruction in the 8th century, which still makes it impressive/old!
