Segovia... the beginning

Here's the acueduct from the road to my house. It was about a 3 minute walk from here.
Here's the "plaza del acueducto" one of our first nights in Segovia.
An attempt at a night acueduct picture.
The plaza mayor with the cathedral in the background. Here's the plaza mayor from the other side. My house was about a 5 minute walk through the two buildings in the center.
This was taken our first full day in Segovia while we were exploring the city.

The following is a sequence of pictures taken on my walk home from school (They weren't all necessarily taken on the same day). Take note of all the stairs!
Here's the university... IE
This is the first set of stairs upon leaving the doors of IE
I walked up the road a ways to these...

Upon passing under the arch at the top I would then arrive at these...
This is the park at the top with the beautiful old chapel in the background.
This is the view from the park which is essentially what I saw from my kitchen window.
And finally this is the little garden area in our apartment complex. I don't have a picture but to get here I had to climb yet another set of stairs.
