A cool park and along the way through the park some peps allergies went off due to the pollen. We saw an over view and walked to the palace. I took a video of Jessie, Sophia, add Sabrina in front of the palace. Tatum and I took pics of each other. We finally reached the NUN COOKiES that Robin has been talking about. We could only go in small groups and had to pay cash. You could not see the nuns it was a spindle thing and the tour guide had to speak in Spanish to get what flavor you wanted. Erin and I got lemon and almond flavored. Tatum offered the sugar one and i almost chocked and died from the overwhelming amounts of powder sugar on it. After that we walked to the main square and the tour ended. Got a pic with the tour guide and asked where good food is located.
