Burgos is a small Spanish town about an hour or two north of Madrid.
Not heaps here to be absolutely honest.
When we arrived, it was about midday and there was literally one shop open, being the small café at the train station. That was it. The town was deserted! Siesta time. Odd.
We checked into our hotel after a bit of a walk without a map…who needs a map…just head in the general direction…it’ll be fine!
After a freshen up we headed back out and fortunately the bulk of the shops had reopened.
We headed for the Cathedral in town and it too, like the town, was odd. Loads of freaky looking statue heads looking down on you. Well, it is a Catholic Church, so to be expected perhaps!
(Scariest church I have ever been in, I couldn’t wait to get out…Samantha)
Anyways, I wasn’t too well that night, massive headache, so we tried to get some food to eat in our room…could we? No!
No take away food places of ANY description. Really odd. (not even a McDonalds which is odd as they seem to be everywhere these days)
Anyway, we were ok and we left Burgos as planned, after one night, at least the better for having visited a new town.
So, all good.
