August 22, 2012 by Susan Clarke
Trip Day 39 – Saturday, August 18 – Sevilla, Spain
Cathedral Plaza
What I LIKE
- 8:00 am – really good strong coffee @ hotel out of a machine – a 1st for us!
- 9:00 am – nice walk through town to ECI – El Corte Ingles (our favorite store)
- get breakfast – bowl of fresh fruit & nuts
- get a manicure & pedicure (ECI in Madrid was booked)
- don’t need hop on, hop off bus
- save more money!
- 12:00 – lunch – La Terraza – spinach, walnuts, goat cheese salad & mussels in spicy sauce – just so so
- misters in umbrellas to cool you down
- 7:00 pm – Flamenco Show @ Flamenco Museum
- only $20 Euro for 1 hr show
- man on bike who helped us drive in yesterday runs the museum – (What R the Chances!)
- tell him he is “my angel” & give him big kisses
- 8:45 – dinner @ Maccheroni & Co – really fresh arugula salad with tomato, onion, & tender thin veal slices (thought I ordered cheese) good quality olive oil & balsamic vinegar – VG (very good) – pizza with spicy salami – YUM! – nice Italian wine recommendation – good service
- Casa 1800 has really cute roof top deck
- only 1 flight above our room
Alcazar Facade
What I DIDN”T LIKE
- breakfast not included in room rate
- want $9.50 PP
- not enough fruit for me so opt out
- over 100+
- feels like a sauna
- 6:40 – arrive Flamenco Museum & all good seats are all taken
FF (FUN-fact) – Flamenco is a music-and-dance art form with its roots in the Roma (gypsy) and Moorish cultures.
