Spent most of the morning/day walking around the old Castle that oversee's the town. If you are wondering it's about a 1000 foot elevation gain with 318 steps and a lot switchbacks.
Us on one of the Castle walls.
Castle bits...
And the obligatory cannon shot...
Guard post
Fran on duty...
And the best part
There's a giant statue of Jesus that sits on top of what was once the Castle. Kind of like Rio he overlooks the town now instead of the soldiers. But the interesting thing is...
He also serves as a radio and cell tower! (Check out the finger that's an antenna as well as on his back). Both a religious and industrial icon!
