It's not every day you manage to convince grandmothers to leave the house for an adventure, and I confess that this in itself is a small victory. On one of those weekends, we decided to take ours to Valença, a destination we love and which, incredibly, they had never visited. The day wasn't exactly inviting, with a sky heavy with that mixture of gray and promises of rain, but we decided that wouldn't stop us. After all, family adventures don't choose the weather, and if the grandmothers agreed, let's go.

The Historical Documentary Collection of the Cortes of Aragon aims to recover, promote and disseminate the documentary and bibliographic heritage related to the Institution and the historical and artistic environment of its headquarters, the Aljafería Palace. With it, we can approach the works that deal with Aragonese law: the rules that shaped it, the works of the leading jurists and the procedures for approving legal texts.

I reached Strasbourg fairly early, about 8 in the morning. The city was just waking up. Shops half-open, streets calm, and that quiet morning chill. The first order of business, of course, was to get a day pass for public transport because I had a lot of ground to cover. And here's the pleasant surprise, the day pass cost a mere 4.5 euros! Yes, you read that right: all-day unlimited travel on buses and trams. I was impressed already, and it had barely started.
