The Final Stop and New Years Eve in Cordoba

On our last full day in Spain we spent the day in Cordoba.  It was a beautiful city, but unfortunately it was rainy and cold the whole time we were there so we didn’t enjoy our time as much as we should have. 


Here are a few shots from around the city:






ANDALUSIAN HORSES


The Andalusian are a breed of horses that were developed in southern Spain (hence the name Andalusian).  They are a beautiful breed and a group of them are held in some stables in Cordoba.  



Here are the stables.



And here are some of the horses!





NEW YEARS:


That night G and I went downtown for the city’s New Years party.  



The Spanish have a really interesting New Years tradition: They eat 12 grapes in the last 12 seconds of the New Year.  You’re supposed to have one grape per second.   



Happy New Years!!
