Vincent Poon :: Segovia (9th July 2006)
Segovia is famous for 2 things: Alcazar, the castle that rumoured to inspire Walt Disney on the design of the Sleeping Beauty's castle; and the giant Acueducto, an aqueduct that proved the signs of Roman leftovers in Spain.  To me, journey to Segovia could be summarized in one word: "WAIT!".. Waiting for the infrequent train (every 2 hours), waiting for the train journey (took another 2 hours), waiting for the local bus to take me to the aqueduct (every half an hour).. then repeat again for the return journey... The whole day was spend on waiting, waiting, and waiting!
