Sevilla (Andalucia - Spain)

Last Stop: Sevilla!

Very unfortunately, Sevilla didn't have as nice of weather as the other spots.  Even though it is usually beautiful and sunny, it rained until the late afternoon.  Like Granada, the streets in the centre are really narrow, one-way, and difficult to drive through.  A nightmare to park as well!  Unlike Granada, street signs are actually visible!

Braving the rain, we decided to go sightseeing: Cathedral, Gardens, Plaza de Torros, Plaza de Espana, and the centre.  Let me tell you that visiting gorgeous gardens in the rain is not the most pleasant thing.  Glad it eventually cleared up!

Sevilla is just beautiful as well!  As it was our last night on our trip, we decided to have a great last dinner, heading to a traditional Spanish wine bar where of course we had great meals, plenty of wine, and a great time!  Sadly we had to head back to our hostel at a decent hour as we had to get up at 4AM the next day to return to Valencia.


Andalucia was just stunningly beautiful!  The weather, the sightseeing, the landscape, and the friendly people were amazing.  The food in the South of Spain might just be better than the one in Valencia - great food and wine!  Of course this trip was great due to the good company!  The 3 girls and I made sure that we would have a good time, just being goofballs, and enjoying every aspect of it - even the getting lost a million times and the long hours of driving.  I would go back there anything, and with the same girls - but this time with a huge map or a GPS!
