In Andalucia we arrived to our first destination, Seville. It is my second favorite city in Spain. The girls- I mean the sights there were amazing. The Guadalquivir River passes through Seville. Seville is not like Madrid where there are no bodies of water just pure city. This is one reason why I love Barcelona. Barcelona is right next to the Meditteranean Sea. However, in Andalucia the climate is sooo hot. I saw many cool shirts that said "E=M(C)^2" It was sooo hot that I followed some kids and jumped into the Guadalquivir River. Later my mom saw that there was a sign saying "Prohibido Banarse" (no swimming.) It was quite refreshing. In Seville we saw some great Flamenco. I really wanted to go up there and dance with them but refrained in my seat observing the spectacle. We also entered the huge cathedral of Seville which was quite impressive. We climbed all 35 levels of the Giralda (bell tower.) It was here in Seville that I also tried "caracoles" or snails. I ate the whole bowl because my mom did not want to help. All I can say is they were different.

  1. Yes, the girls--I mean the sights--were pretty indeed! I think Sander would have enjoyed them too.

    I think I liked Sevilla the best. Part of it was due to the fact that your great grandfather came from Sevilla to Mexico.
