I enjoyed every aspect of it!\u00a0 On our way Candelario, we stopped in Salamanca and took a guided walking toward around the city.\u00a0 The architecture was phenomenal, (especially the doors to the cathedral).\u00a0 When we arrived in Candelario, my friends and I received the key to our very own cabin.\u00a0 It was such a cute space! I immediately called dibs on a cozy lofted area with an adorable winding staircase.\u00a0 When we had time to explore the town before and after meals, we walked through the winding streets, discovering impressive views with each turn. On Friday night, we hung out at one of the local bars.\u00a0 The locals were so kind and fun! On Saturday we visited Granadilla (an abandoned town that is now used for summer camps and open to tourists).\u00a0 It was absolutely beautiful! And just when I thought the views couldn&#8217;t get any better, I climbed to the top of the main tower and was able to see the entire town, the surrounding water, and mountains (miles of them).\u00a0 Also, the picture below is me in a tree in Granadilla.\u00a0 Unfortunately, I came down with a cold Saturday afternoon (probably all that cold mountain air) and ended up staying in bed for most of the day.\u00a0 Surprisingly, I still really enjoyed my day.\u00a0 Our room was so relaxing and warm, and I was able to catch up on some trip journaling.\u00a0 On Sunday we went on a leisurely walk and visited historical spots along the way.\u00a0 I drank from the purest mountain water spout which is said to grant you a significant other with just three sips.\u00a0 Well, I filled my water bottle up so fingers crossed.\u00a0 In the afternoon we headed back to Madrid. Candelario was absolutely incredible!\u00a0 It was a weekend I&#8217;ll never forget.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_9118-300x225.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13185 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_9118-300x225-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our weekend excursion to Candelario has been the highlight of my trip this far.
