Ávila to Salamanca
David and Nuria had kindly offered to be our Ávila tour guides this morning so we met them at 11am just outside the wall by one of the entrances. Nuria was a very knowledgeable guide as we walked along the top of the very impressive wall.
We then drove on to Mirador de Los Cuatro Postes (Viewpoint of the Four Posts) to get an external view of the city wall, before a nice meal at a restaurant nearby. After saying our goodbyes we drove on to Salamanca for the night.
Salamanca is a university city and once again we admired Spain's amazing architecture and attention to detail. Our hotel was an old convent called San Esteban and the view from our room was of the garden and the original arched cloisters.
We headed for the Plaza Mayor, and sat at one of the tapas bars that lined the edge of the square to have a drink and some dinner before calling it a night.
