Day 2 - Salamanca

As Joost and Rob had scheduled a rest day in Salamanca we took the opportunity to do a little sight seeing and ventured into the beautiful city centre. First we stopped for some coffee and tortilla for breakfast and did some shopping as well as visit the bureau for tourism to ensure we did not miss any sights. The old city has a fantastic awe inspiring Cathedral (old and new) and other churches as well as musea and old streets etc.
We enjoyed a nice menu for 12 euro in a city centre restaurant. The food in spain is great!
Joost tried to get Brian and I some pilgrim passports so that we could get our Pilgrim stamps along the way. Unfortunately however the gentleman that advised us yesterday to call today at 5 p.m. suffered from amnesia and now suggested to call him on Monday morning at 10 am. As we were starting our walk at 8 am this wasn't going to work for us. <(
After visiting another beautiful church we headed back to the hotel for a little rest and later that evening ventured out with Rob for a drink in the local bar.
