In addition to Segovia being a city it is also a province in Spain and we visited it today before our flight to Barcelona.  The museum is very well designed with videos and relics dating back more than 2,000 years.   We were given a guided tour that involved a discussion of the creation of the area more than 600 million years ago, all of the known inhabitants of the area from 30,000 years ago to the present and the different products that were manufactured in the area which including everything from pottery to clothing to coins from the local mint.  More history of the general area of Castilla y León can be found here and it is rather impressive.  Our tour took about 75 minutes and was both interesting and informative but we were all too excited to head off to Barcelona today so that was our main focus at the end of the tour.  No more posts until next week but hopefully we will have a lot to share from our weekend up north.
