Laowai

For the next few days of our vacation we traveled to a city called Girona. It's a pretty old city known for it's Medieval architecture, Roman ruins and more recently it's become a cycling city (more about that later).

Here we are walking along the old city wall.

I didn't expect Girona to have such a significant cathedral. It has the second-widest nave of any church – Saint Peter's at the Vatican is the widest. 

We ate empanadas. Mmmmm.

The lioness sculpture above is a symbol of Girona and apparently you have to climb the pole and kiss her bum in order to "become an accepted citizen—or at least to ensure you would return to Girona". And the funny sign below warns about passing covid by lioness bum kissing. No, we didn't kiss her. The pole is just tall enough to be a challenge and none of us wanted to make a spectacle of ourselves.

Bea took photos of pigeons.

This red bridge was designed by Gustave Eiffel before he did the Eiffel Tower.
