| First stop in Sevilla - Modesto (for a most scrumptious lunch!!!) |
| What kid doesn't love a lunch of eggs and potatoes? (Big kids too; this is one of Tony's favorites.) |
| Delicious olives and .... (I can't recall but they were scrumptious.) |
| Yum. Yes indeed. |
| Yaya and Kaia. (Kaia sure does love those gafas!) |

| All the oranges were quite delightful. Orange trees were everywhere. Apparently they are not for eating though; they are for marmalade. |

| First view upon seeing La Giralda. |
As you can see, today we drove to Sevilla to spend the next three days touring around. While I'm not necessarily a large city lover, it is rather charming here in the Santa Cruz neighborhood! (And while I was actually in Sevilla eighteen years ago, I can't recall being able to spend so much time in this quaint area of the city.) We are spending the next two nights staying at the Casa Palacio San José. (Quite a spectacular palace full of history; we are fortunate enough to have connections!)
| La Giralda and the Cathedral |

| Akilah looks so tiny! |
| Akilah had some kind of involved game going on. She thoroughly enjoyed touring the Cathedral and La Giralda! |

| Yaya and Akilah. Still climbing up! |

| Looking out one of the windows as we climbed the 32 floors to the top of the Giralda. |
And of course our touring isn't complete without a café side trip!
| Akilah has been working on this masterpiece; it reminds me of all the gorgeous tile work we see scattered around Spain! |
To be continued... (this day was jam packed!!!)
