Sevilla, Spain

We arrived in Seville hoping to find more Spanish culture; without a doubt this city is alive and ready for a party. Between the tapas bars on every corner, huge bull ring in the center of old town and flamenco dresses hanging out of almost every store the culture can not be missed. This is the perfect time to hit Seville. The Easter week celebration is huge here as well as the April bull fights so our timing was perfect. The city has lots of tourists but they don't over power the strong local felling of the city.

We hit the highlights the Real Alcazar and the Cathedral y Giralda. After Rome we did not
think a Cathedral could wow us but we were wrong. The sculptures and shear size of the Cathedral is sight that should not be missed. The palace and gardens at Real Alcazar were extraordinary and made for a cool escape within the city.
This is a place you could easily spend a week just checking out different parts of the city.
