Toledo, Spain (Day 1)

We took the high speed train to Toledo. What a beautiful old walled city located on a hilltop!  We had great views of the city from our hotel room. On our first day there we just walked around the city, saw the historic walls that surround the city, ancient bridges, and gates to the city, which were built in the Roman times and are still standing. We also visited the Monastery of San Juan de Los Reyes which was a Franciscan convent founded in 1476. We went out in the evening to see the Christmas decorations throughout the city. This is a very hilly city with lots of stairs and steep hills.
