In case you were wondering what happened to me last week, I thought I'd show you the room in which I spent it. I have never given a talk in a room that was quite so grand.
The Sigüenza Parador has been on top of the hill overlooking the town in various castle-based forms since the twelfth century. The roof was destroyed during the Spanish Revolution. Reconstruction in its current form as a four-star hotel did not start until the late 1960s. It was completed in the mid-1970s. It's just a little bit impressive.
