(picture: vista across city from our hotel window)
Early indications were confirmed the further we got through Friday, Toledo is a super city. Lots of walking done and sights seen we found a specialist fish restaurant (La Naviera, C/. de la Campana) at about 9:15. Now if you read all the books Spanish people don’t even think about eating until 10 - cobblers! The place was rammed and we took the chance of waiting our turn on a list. After supping beers and wine and keeping an eye on the list for progress (lots of Madrilanos waiting, plus us) we were duly seated in turn after an hour. No favouritism given, completely fair and above board, despite a few trying it on with the staff. The staff were proverbial blue arse flies & actually lovely, we had a very good meal of Gambons, Dorada and Salmon. We felt really Spanish eating, what for us, is so late. After coffee, some strange yellow liquor (gratis), we headed out by midnight to crash Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz 3am Cathedral Bells ringing ?! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz7am a sodding cacophony of bells! Zzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…Desayuno & a river runs round it.
Hasta Luego.
