There are two towns near Madrid that are popular day trip
destinations for Madrid: Toledo and Segovia. Of the two, Toledo, the town
described to be trapped in time, seems to be the more popular one. But when I
saw the majestic Roman aqueducts in Segovia, I immediately decided to go there.
Some say you just need half a day to see everything, and that might be true,
but I spent a whole day there wandering through the streets and just enjoying
the wide, dry, hilly Mediterranean landscape and had a wonderful time.
