March 18th, first trip to Sevilla!

Our first trip to Sevilla, but certainly not our last.  My parents and I took the girls to Sevilla for the day.  What a beautiful city, I look forward to going back and exploring more.  We started the day off with a carraige ride through the city, the girls loved it!  Our guide however did not speak English and told us that none of the guides did...who knows!  After the ride we wondered around and found the Cathedral and the Castle.  We enjoyed lunch then went to the Cathedral to look inside.  The girls climbed all the way up the bell tower and we all took in the views from above!  After the Cathedral, we walked to Plaza Espana!  The park across from the Plaza is Parque de Maria Luisa, a place I want to return, lots of trails and little parks for the kids to play on.  We finished the day and let the girls play on the playground right by the parking lot!  Overall, fun day was had by all!








The Alcazar, or castle!

Rooftop pools, that appear to be part of a restaurant, so cool!
