(Salamanca, 12/02/11)

When my friends and I realized that our time in Spain was limited, we made a Salamanca bucket list. 

The Convent of San Esteban was a beautiful church/grounds we walked by fairly often but always assumed we'd go in later. When we finally shelled out the 3 euro entrance fee, this is what awaited us.
