Visit to Jerez I

October 9, 2008 Thursday
You can't imagine how much grief I've had to go through to upload these following pix. The internet access at the library is very touchy about uploads. I can only do one picture at a time and never a video. But I know that all text is boring so here they are!!!

A few weeks ago we went to Jerez for some flamenco and while we were waiting went and did some touristic stuff - we visited the cathedral and the Alcazar (old Moorish fortress). Here are the pix:

Here is the front of the cathedral. The stonework and carving is exceptional.

Here is the cathedral as seen from the Alcazar. Jerez is a smaller town, so this is a big cathedral for a small town, but nothing like the one in Sevilla.

Here is a closer view of the fascade.
