Madrid 3 dias Consiguera Toledo #2 /3

Someone stole my page this is not the original page 

I am redoing a short version of it

not fun

but please continue reading me.

I was in Madrid 3 days for my lay over as a flight attendant.

I posted 3 days on Madrid.

So on my second day, I decided to go to Toledo by train and than to go to Consiguera to see the famous 

Don Quixote wind mill.

olive trees the olive are not good too eat they use it for oil.

    castle

          pistachios trees

           castle/museum

Here they are my wind mill

no I met Don Quixote....ennemy

When I see those I am just smiling.

They are not your ugly windmill we are seing now that are destroying the scenary no they are cute they have a purpose you can live inside...

The other modern one are just plain ugly.

Afterwards  I went to have lunch in Toledo after my visit to the spectacular Cathedral.

I took a taxi to the train station

there are 2 

Horrible huge train station

4 stairs down

now to purchase a ticket another road block

which train company go to Consiguera 

here there where 

i finally got a one way ticket to Toledo

13.95 euroos

45 minutes

I had time to eat a croissant and sip a cappucino.

So.many people here you can not just run to your train securoty check waiting room than you go.

I finally arrived in the beautiful train station of Toledo. Really very stylish.

When I got there 

I took a taxi driver

to take me there.

too bad no one wanted to come with me.

45 minutes

It wa s such a beautiful part of Spain 

valleys full of olive trees pistachio vineyards on oragne yellow field with mountains in the far back

Really cool

and when I got to the windmill the village was a ghost town

5 men thats it

and than

the caslte 

and than 

here they were 

in front of me

amazing and just like I wanted to see them

I was seing them just like  Don Quixote did

years ago

After some great photos shots I went to Toledo

I Saw this incredible cathedral with a bagage of history and stunning pieces of art, the puit de lumiere is out of this world, the  room of paiting from famlus spanish painters...

For me its the most beautiful cathedral of Europe.

Its similar design lkke the sepulcre in Jerusalem 

with a spalsh of gold and colors...

check the details

         gold gold gold 

You wonder sometime this religion is for the rich not the poor really see how much money there is in here and this part is behind a fence well protected but 

how on heart they sculpt this on an angle like this with what they had in the old days

I had lunch with the locals and bought some oil and pistachios and left for Madrid.

Ticket train perfect 

and the way to the hotel I stopped at Cortes Engles to get some wine  cheese and iberica to finish the bread I did not eat at lunch time and made myself a great sandwich with a tiny bottle of Ramone Bilbao.

I had a great day
