Seville Spain

     When I started to post this photo of Seville, I was surprised to see the date. There have been several trips since then, but it seems only yesterday that we set aside a month to travel around Spain. I recommend, by the way, renting a car as the roads are good and the drivers are fairly courteous. 

      This photo is of a large building and circular canal in a park in Seville. Seville is well worth a visit.  We stayed there several days and from there drove into Portugal. While in Seville, we used trams and walking as transportation and got around easily. The central city has plenty to see and has great character. I recommend Seville, Granada and Barcelona as long stops. We also really enjoyed Segovia and its alcazar. 

     As a pair from California, we felt at home in Spain as the two places look much alike. However, I do warn folks that learning Spanish in California is learning Mexican and it doesn't work well in Spain. Besides, in Spanish cities loads of folks speak English.
