seville

Have left Madrid. Things I think I didn’t mention about it… went to Prado and Palacio Real. Have pics. Will remember funny stories at a later date (have them recorded in journal).

We are in Seville now, southern Spain. It is much cosier and (imho), prettier than Madrid. Loving it. Shopping is great here too, but we haven’t seen the sights yet - also on the list of things to do here is catch some flamenco, as Seville is renowned for that.

Spain plays in the World Cup today so excitement is high, lots of national pride being shown and folks getting to the bars in the early morning for their Irish breakfast and lung exercises. Our hotel is top notch, but there is a panel on the entrance that says “USO EXCLUSIVOS BOMBEROS”. Sounds ominous.

Last night we were looking for an internet cafe (they call them cybercafes here, pronounced see-ber-cafe) and I asked a waiter dude in my broken sign-language-slash-spanglish…. his waiter-friend turned red in the face and couldn’t stop laughing… I may have accidentally offered him cybersex. Not sure what else could be so funny about an internet cafe.

Can’t wait til you all can see my pictures!!

I got some itchy spots on my feet, and when I walk around in my flip flops, it scratches them with each step that I take, and it feels sooooo good and yet sooo perverse.
