    January 4 in Spain ⋅ 🌧 55 °F

    We just love European trains! Our high speed train got us from Sevilla to Cordoba in about 40 minutes. Comfortable and easy (even though the train was full).

    Arriving too early to check into our hotel, we spent most of the day roaming the town and getting our bearings. Like the last 5 days (and a few in Barcelona), we had some drizzle and gray skies. We walked to the other side of the river for lunch, and, on our way back, we saw a really large Eurasian river otter and Spain's native gray heron, a huge bird. (The heron seemed to be chasing the otter away from it's fishing area, because the otter immediately dove and swam away as the heron approached).

    Pics show a few of the sights.

    Fun fact - the "C" on a faucet does not mean "Cold". It means Caliente or hot.
