>>Toledo<< Today I took a train to Toledo!  I visited by visiting the library which had a nice little cafe and a great view!  Then I took a trip to the Cathedral Cisneros. I passed homes with these beautiful balcony doors Then I visited the last hand made sword shop in Spain...here I purchased a sword (not a sharp one lol) and gave it to my dad. Then after lunch I visited the Museum of Greco. After leaving the museum I stumbled upon these amazing doors... beautiful view of the towers Then I went on this little train ride through the city it gave an amazing view! The ride gave a beautiful view of the city!
