Jill and I most enjoyed the gardens at the Alcazar in Cordoba. These gardens occupy about 55,000 square meters of land and contain many different kinds of plants including orange and lemon trees as well as cypress and palm trees.
Jill loved the trees so much that she started hugging them! It was really embarrassing and I couldn't get her to stop! ;) Seriously though we found the coolest tree near the back of the gardens. It was trimmed to look like a tower and we enjoyed playing and posing with it. Another fun fact about the Alcazar is that it was the location where Christopher Columbus asked Isabella and Ferdinand to sponsor his trip to the Indies....but we all know that he ended up in the Americas. There is a nice representation of their meeting amongst the trees.
