Toledo




This was on our way to to toledo these windmills are in a famous story called Don Quijote (don key ho tay). Its about this guy who thought he was a knight. When he saw one of these windmills he thought it was a giant monster and started to attack the windmill. So those are the windmills in the story.








This is a gate into toledo. Toledo is a medival city tat is the capitol of swords and gold. There is alot of different sword shops and alot of gold bracelets and different things made out of gold.






Right behind the gate is this building. I thought it looked really cool so i took the picture of it.









When we were in toledo we took this train ride tour that showed us around toledo. This is one of the views we saw during that train ride.












This is another thing we saw during the train ride.













This is a door into a cathedral. I liked all the architectural artwork around the doors.











Also, when we were in toledo we went to a torture musuem. There was the guillotine which was used to chop peoples head off.















This is another of the torturing devices. The would set the person on the chair and the chair has really sharp spikes on it. They would then ask the person a question and if the person didn't answer the question they would push down on there leg or other parts of the body and the spikes would go into the part of the body.
