Córdoba-June 25, 2012

We joined the Woodberry boys and took an early train to Córdoba.  It is about one and a half hours from Sevilla and is home of the famous cathedral, also known as La Mezquita.  It is actually a cathedral that was built right in the middle of a mosque when the Moors were kicked out of Spain by the Catholics.  The mosque was built on a Gothic church, which the Moors bought for a goodly sum as their population grew. It is incredible to see all of these cultures together in their architecture.  It was a nice day that ended with some tapas that consisted of "Cola de Toro" or bull tail.  The boys told me that it tasted like pot roast, but different.  Hmmm?  I still do not eat red meat, so I have to take their word for it.  We came back to Sevilla and I have started to pack us up and do some laundry.  We had a lovely dinner as a family at Viñeria San Telmo.
