Alleys of Old Castile. (Spain)
#1



Hello everyone.

Taking advantage of the good weather in this balmy September (in USA what you call "Indian Summer"), I made a trip of a day by old roads of Castile (Spain), where people of the Middle Ages, the fourteenth century, XV, XVI.

Here I am in the castle of Ampudia (see Google Maps). A thirteenth-century castle.

Then by old villages of Castile.

Here I am in a town called "Antiguedad" (see on Google Maps).
In this village there is tradition of aviation pilots, and a few years ago this was placed F4 Phantom of the Spanish Air Army.

Beautiful...especially so for me as it is currently snowing about 90 miles from here. Love the pic of the narrow street. Thanks

Great pics pachelo. I love old castles and have seen some of the German ones but never been to Spain (but I've been to Oklahoma).

That would be me MTC. I'll be closer to balmy Chicago today because I'm moving my In-laws out of Milwaukee (trip #14) up to my winter wonderland.

Nice backgrounds!
Although I like the castles and love the CB, it certainly is a mix of old and new!
