ávila.

okay, so i'm back to blogging about my european life (pathetic, i know). 

but really.... europe > utah. any day. 

and i still have so many little european goodies to share with you! 

soooo without further ado, i give you... ávila! 

on our way to salamanca back in may, we stopped in this amazing, mountainous (for spain) city in castilla y leon. 

and oh my. it was such a sight!

the entire city is surrounded by those classic, medieval city walls.

i'd never before seen them in real life nor realized the enormity of them.

they're massive and so expansive. 

and inside the walls is church after cathedral after church... after cathedral.

so much cool romanesque and gothic architecture! 

we were only in ávila for a few hours, but we loved exploring the churches and city walls!

and the views were unbelievable! 

don't believe me? take a look for yourself...

me encanta mucho españa. muuuucho.
