Hello Bill,
I did go..went to Toledo..it was easier and I had a bit more interest in going....CUTE little town....totally worthe seeing...I didn't spend as much time as I would have liked there....I am a El Greco freak so I would have loved to see his famous painting of the Burial of Count Orgaz, but didn't get to see it....saw many interesting things though....swords galore and the cathedral! ah, the cathedral is AMAZING! Don't regret going one bit......

And thanks for asking!

That is really awful not to see the painting Burial of Count Orgaz. I did but I could not take any photos which I would have like too. On the other hand it is rare to see masterpieces where the artist painted them. Usually great works of art wind up in a museum.

I find it strange about this debate on Toledo vs. Segovia no one mention marzipan for Toledo? It was my lunch when I was there. thumbsup

Bill
