Our flight from Dublin took about two and a half hours, so we arrived in the city around lunchtime. We had a coffee stop and a little wander before dropping our bags in the hotel.

After that we took another little stroll, this time to check out Elizabeth and Kevin’s tapas recommendation - Lola por Dios. A great little place, with a very lively atmosphere and super tapas.

We decided to do an open top bus tour to get a sense of the scale of the city and where everything is located. Not one of our smartest ideas! A waste of money, to be honest - but c’est la vie.

We were very tired and cold by that point, so we went back to the hotel for a siesta. Dinner was at Casa Robles (thanks Laurie for the recommendation) followed by another wander to soak up the Saturday night atmosphere. Life is good!

Why did I think that Seville would be warm in January? It’s really cold 😊Read more
Laurie Reynolds Last week it was also cold in Mexico City in January. What's going on? Glad you found Robles, hope it was good!

Traveler Yesterday’s television news showed snow in Almeria and Granada, so it seems we aren’t alone in having unseasonably cold weather. Robles was lovely - great place for Damian’s birthday dinner.

Another day of wandering and eating, in slightly warmer temperatures than yesterday.

Damian opted for a walking tour around the city, which was much more enjoyable and informative than yesterday’s open top bus. My marathon training plan had a 10 mile run for today, so I did my own version of a city tour. I ended up running alongside the Sevilla half marathon for a few miles, which added some much needed motivation. I felt a little guilty when spectators started cheering, though!

We met up again around one and strolled along the first few hundred metres of the Via de la Plata, before crossing the bridge to Triana, We struck it lucky again with food, thanks to another food recommendation. A huge lunch of delicious tapas at Casa Remesal.

We’re resting now in our hotel - Palacio Pinello in the old town. It’s very nice. A restored old building with lovely staff.Read more

10 weeks later (!) ... some photos of our visit to the Real Alcázar and our wanderings on day 3.
This is a very impressive place and the gardens are at least as interesting as the palace itself. The afternoon's tapas at Bar Europa (based on another trusted recommendation) were a delight.

All in all, we had an enjoyable and break. There were lots more things that we could have done and seen, but lazy was what we needed this time.Read more
