• Burgos - Que Bonita!

    7. juli 2024, Spanien ⋅ ☀️ 77 °F

    Burgos is so beautiful. What a great place for a rest stop. I celebrated Mass at Santa Claus’ church (St Nicholas of Bari - Joe Nuzzi loves this saint as it’s where his father grew up. See photo of inside of church)

    The cathedral of Santa Maria is astounding. The third largest cathedral in Spain.

    This post is dedicated to three people in particular: David Denio, Andrew Koehler, and Marianne Strayton. It was Marianne who originally informed me that vermouth is particular to this region. So I went to the best bar in Burgos that specializes in Vermouth and ordered a Compari - Vermuteria Victoria. This is one of David’s favorite drinks. And he turned Andrew on to it on his 21st birthday (if I remember correctly). So cheers to each of you! For being so important to me, in your own special way!

    After one drink, I have to say, I think my palate has matured enough to enjoy this. 50 can do that to a person I suspect. 😉
