Sevilla day 2

OLE





A quiet evening as we sat reading our books until the sun had warmed us with its last rays and the moon had taken up sentry duty for the night and so to bed…..

I showered early and prepared breakfast when I returned to Herman, we decided the itinerary for the day – back to Seville!! It is another extremely hot day so plenty of factor 40 massaged onto our arms, legs and face and off we went.
Pleasant drive by bus into Seville, although the speed the drivers reach always has me in doubt as to whether we will arrive safely or not!! When we reached the destination, we set off on foot to explore the city and found ourselves in gardens with the most beautiful flowers and statues to long gone heroes, such as Christopher Columbus, Magellan and the like. Then there was the maze of narrow streets, which open onto stunning squares shaded by Jacaranda trees or large palm trees, all offering welcome shade from the hot afternoon sun. By the time we had reached the bullring the temperature was over 40C but at least it was time to join the bus and wend our back to the camp site. Another BBQ tonight but not so good as previous, could be that there was no wine! Supper and dishes washed I decided to write the blog in the cool of the A.C. in the motor home.
