    Seville Spain.

    25 September 2023, Spanyol ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    Bus trip uneventful... staying in a hostel for 2 nights 8 bed dorm! Yes I might be crazy but so far so good.
    Visit to the Seville Cathedral, which was beautiful, and walked up the 35 set of stairs to the top for some brilliant views.
    Walked around this lovely city. Came across the plaza de Toros de la Real Maestranza. Bull fighting arena. This was an interesting place. I don't agree with it but the ' institution ' was fascinating.
    Walked on some more to the Torre del Oro aka Tower of gold, sitting in the banks of the river glimmering in the sun. Not sure I'd call it gold.
    Wondered back in the direction of Hostel and grabbed a tapas meal and sangria. Good night legs hurt 17+k steps.    Baca selengkapnya

    Granada

    28 September 2023, Spanyol ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C

    Time for a little break. Treated myself to a 3 star boutique hotel.
    Train ride was beautiful passed loads of olive orchards.
    Went for a walk... 17+k steps...
    Visited Basilica de San Juan de Dios. These old churches and Basilicas are freaking me out a bit. There's bones in clear boxes hanging on walls and skulls, the large silver and gold urn has the remains of St John of God in it. There's fairly gruesome art and sculptures depicting events.
    I might be over the religious monuments I think.
    Walked to the top of the town Mirador de Santa Isabel la Real for a stunning view. A tough walk with loads of steps.
    I couldn't get a ticket to the full experience of Alhambra but made my way up there as the gardens and the pavilion were free.... took the death march way as it turns out.... 860 meter walk that climbs 80 meters. It was fairly strenuous in 38degree heat. So apparently the prince used this path to visit the Generalife gardens. The path was eventually turned into the carriage way for funeral processions so a real death march except I was alive 😂
    Shower and back out for something to eat.
    Dinner and sangria with a view. Had the most energetic waiter ever.    Baca selengkapnya

    Granada

    29 September 2023, Spanyol ⋅ ☀️ 31 °C

    Quiet day today.
    Hammam this morning which was particularly uplifting. I had a 'Season experience' which was based on autumn and shedding of the unwanted dead leaves and preparing for the next season. Boy did I need that!
    Went for a long walk to find a Lidl as I feared I was missing out on something. Pickering Cooper's currently in EU to and To be raves about the place.
    As it turned out they did a pretty good salad for lunch otherwise it's really just a cheep supermarket and given I walked 4k round trip for a salad well.....
    On return to the hotel, discovered a supermarket right across the road! 😂 that'll be useful tomorrow for a long train ride.
    However on my travels found that Granada is mad for a fountain....
    They also stock some interesting things in vending machines (laugh when you see it), found the science museum which has a giant boat with ants crawling up it, also found a random helicopter and statue of Flamenco.
    Also pic out my room window which is a pretty cool view.    Baca selengkapnya

    Granada to Valencia

    30 September 2023, Spanyol ⋅ 🌙 24 °C

    Went for a walk this morning and found a master puppeteers house to look through and paid €3 to take a tour in Spanish 😂 I haven't the foggiest of ideas what was said....
    Beautiful gardens surrounding the house.
    Found a palace which was known as the Palace of swans so of course they shoved a couple of them in the pond.
    Sangria to say goodbye to Granada and proof it's a soft drink.. 😂
    6 hours on a train.
    Will explore Valencia tomorrow.    Baca selengkapnya

    Barcelona the end!

    All good things must come to an end...
    After a cracking night walk to the market for lunch. It was brilliant. Said farewell to Kim Tobe Ellie Caitlin and Marcus then took myself to the Picasso museum.
    Out the airport I went. Delivered my dinner by a robot!
    Anyway it's a bloody long trip home.
    Leaving at 850pm Sat get home 730am Monday.
    It's been a cracker trip. I have healed some pretty sore wounds with the help of some new friends and some especially close long term friends.    Baca selengkapnya
