Spain2013 (1a) - Cuenca

Cuenca, which was taken out of our last trip plan to Spain, became the first stop of our Spain2013 journey. After two hour train ride from Madrid and 20 minute cab ride (none-stop cursing and honking of the cab driver), we checked in our Parador,  - definitely a room with a view.  It started to rain heavily after we walked into the Parador. Luckily, the rain didn't last.

Across the narrow bridge, we entered the Cuenca old town.

 

 





 

We are in the old town now, with our Parador behind us:

 

Cuenca has a quite decent-sized Plaza Mayor, just in front of its Cathedral:

 

All the way up to the top of the town, Lily was set free:
