Don't know who invited these guys to the garden party?!?

Today in Cordoba we went to a mosque with a Christian church inside of it!?!?! It is called the Mesquita and it is very old.  The building is from the 700s!!!  When you go inside you first go to the mosque.  There are big columns everywhere and it is very dark.  Also there was a squiggle pattern on the roof.  In the middle of the mosque there is a Christian church that the Christians made when they took over the city. Later that day we went to the special gardens and wall. When we were looking from the top of the walls it made me think of the big fighting scene in Lord of the Rings. In the garden there were lots of fish in the water and a lot of beautiful plants everywhere. I chased my mom and Mia around and they tried to hide from me! There also was a big stream that I would put a bottle cap in and it would go all the way to the end.  After the gardens we went to watch the big soccer game in a square, Barcelona vs. Madrid. When we were watching the game a guy kept standing up and yelling (I guess he was a big fan)! In the end the score was 2-2. So nobody won. Then we went home and went to bed.
