Spain Day 19 – Huesca

We spent quite a while trying to go round Barcelona and find the road to Lleida and then on to Huesca.

Whilst driving but unable to stop we saw this ruin on top of a far hill which turns out to be the Monasterio de el Pueyo. This was built a little after 1101 when a shepherd saw an apparition of the Virgin Mary who asked him to get the local people to build a chapel there.

We arrived in Huesca but to the north west of the town so are looking forward to sight seeing tomorrow.

As part of my twice daily regimen I was taken for a walk in a local park!!!

This was well set out and one picture is of a wendy house based on one of the houses from Snow White which during the summer kids can play in. There were also lots of gardens and ponds.

Off on our bikes tomorrow.
