For the second excursion (last weekend) we went to see some of the historic buildings at Valdedios and then hit Rodiles Beach. At Valdedios we visited a 9th century church,
La Iglesia de San Salvador de Valdedios and the convent. The picture to the left is part of the covered porch in the church. The church was completed in the year 892 - that is a very long time ago and bogles my mind to think about the time this church has sat in this now quite valley. Next to the church is the
Monasterio de Santa Maria de Valdedios which has seen many additions and changes over the years. Over all the Valdedios (Valley of God) is a very peaceful place full of historical tid-bits.

Your typical Spanish Sunbather, ok so this really isn't very typical for Spanish swimwear which tends to be a little more revealing :) Rodiles Beach, Asturias Spain
