From the Cordoba train station, we boarded the bus to our hotel in the Old Town. We found the quaint little neighborhood and after some help from a local ambulance driver, found the small street with our hotel on it. Unfortunately, in the confusion we missed the 10pm check in time and had to continue our search for a payphone to call the staff to let us in. Finally, we made contact and were let in to our pleasant hotel complete with a rooftop terrace. We had a snack and headed to bed with plans to meet up with another of Corinne’s friends (Laura) the next day.
In the morning, we toured the area viewing the famous Mosque and various shops in all of Old Town Cordoba. We found ourselves in the new town and browsed the shopping district before heading back to our hotel to meet Laura. She arrived and took us around; answering the questions we had about the history of the town and various other interests. She treated us to a late lunch in the main square before walking us back to our hostel and to the bus stop. We boarded and headed back to the train station where, after some confusion, we purchased a ticket for the next train heading West.
