words and pictures

The last full day of a wonderful 2 weeks tour around central and north of Spain. A fairly rainy day but it’s also November so what would you expect. Fantastic place also this time, my last visit was in 1984. Our apartment hotel, Alizaque, lies quite a bit up beyond the old town. Views are impressive.

Iglesia San Pedro

Around noon we reach the Cathedral and Plaza Mayor. A splendid exhibition is shown in the cathedral, La Poética de la Libertad.

After this, why not another exhbition? Museo de Arte Abstracto Español: Los Primero 50 Años.

Antoni Tápies: Dues plaques de cartó simètriques (1960)

Well, the last four abstracts are not hanging in the museum…

We have an late lunch/early dinner in the newer parts of Cuenca, far down the valley. Lucky enough there’s a bus to take us up again to the apartment.
