    26–29 Mac, Sepanyol ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Up at 7.00 am!
    Washed, dressed, packed, and off to the station in time for 08.22am to Malaga for the 09.17am high speed non stop train to Seville.
    We had time to buy coffee and croissants before boarding.
    Seats very comfortable and plenty of leg room. Sun is shining and we are very excited about our trip. More to follow.

    On arrival at Sevilla St Justa we found a taxi and were taken to the Mercado Lonja del Barranco adjacent to the Quadalquiver River where we had tapas and cava🥴
    Once refreshed we then walked to the hotel using our map reading skills. Hotel very nice. Changed clothes and went out straight to Cathedral. We had to go and chance our arm for tickets and were successful. Very big cathedral, which has the tomb of Christophe Colon.
    On the spur of the moment, we booked a boat trip and had ice cream while waiting. Had a beer on the boat and saw lots of bridges.
    Decide to cross the river to the Triana area, once home to prostitutes and gypsies. We attempted entry to a church and failed, but we could hear the singing from outside. We then found a beautiful little church...see pics.
    Eventually, we came across a small flamenco bar and stayed for the show. It was excellent and authentic. Rolled home on the way we dropped into a restaurant to eat. It was the most hilarious couple of hours🤣.
