Cáceres

Before this trip, I was familiar with Alex Caceres, a UFC fighter who goes by the delightfully silly nickname of "Bruce Leeroy." I had never heard of the town of Cáceres, Spain.

Do you recognize this setting from Game of Thrones?I didn't, but the town wants everybody to know that several scenes were filmed locally.

We spent a couple of days in Cáceres. Like Salamanca, the old part is built on a hill; the streets and alleys are narrow and steep. My left knee started to complain.
