Today we are on a day trip to Segovia, about an hour from Madrid.
The big deal in Segovia is the 2,000 year old Roman aqueduct. If you don't notice it they'll let you know.
The aqueduct is an amazing feat of engineering built with granite blocks and no cement or mortar.
Of course we checked out the local palaces and churches but the highlight was a dinner at restaurant Jose Maria. Specialty of the house is roast suckling pig. I won't describe the experience, let's just say it wasn't kosher.

Back to Madrid for the nightly stroll that starts around 11pm.
I lived in Europe for six years and splitting the pig is certainly unique.
