León

Today marks the halfway point, as we have been here for exactly two weeks. Yesterday we only walked about ten kilometers and were able to spend the rest of the day in León. It was a wonderful feeling to come over a hill and see a real city in front of us! Out of all the places we have been, it was my second favorite behind just Madrid. It shares the narrow, colorful streets, but has a very different feeling despite many similar physical features. We visited the Cathedral and were able to explore the entire thing unlike in Burgos. The stained glass was the most breathtaking part of it all; every window was stained glass that had been taken apart and locked away for centuries.

( I didn't take any of these pictures. All of mine are on my camera so they can't be shared until I get home. These are all things we saw that I thought were just too impressive to leave out)
