visual goodies from spain :)


La Giralda...


La Giralda at night...so romantic! This was the view from the rooftop pool at the Hotel Doña Maria, where we had our welcome cocktail. Tapas were incredible!



 Flamenco dancer at the Museo del Flamenco in Sevilla....it so much harder than it looks!!! Amazing performance!!


Spices in Granda...wish there were places like this in Miami.


La Catedral and Giralda....right next to class. This definitely beats the view of the parking lot at BBC.



Garden at the Real Alcazar....clearly just for royalty.



Plaza de Toros de La Maestranza. This place was incredible!!! It was my grandfather's dream to see this place....he never made it, but giving him this picture and seeing his smile melted my heart. <3



Plaza de España. Absolutely breathtaking!! I can't believe it wasnt included in ur program!! FUN FACT: A scene from the movie Star Wars was filmed here!!


  
Italica. TIP: BRING LOTS OF WATER!!! It was so hot.



Another shot at the Real Alcazar.

withdrawals...

I'm having serious Seville withdrawals at the moment. I am currently in Cartagena, Colombia, a city that closely resembles the lifestyle, architecture and beauty of Sevilla. I miss the tapas, the wine, the amazing people I shared this incredible experience with, the boys from Discover Seville, Hotel Abril, Sergeant Pepper, the walking, the ice cream, chupitos, among other things, but I specially miss my heart. I left it in Seville....I can wait to go back and maybe never, ever leave again.
