Hi there, as you all probably know I have lived in Spain now for 9 yrs, but this weekend I went to Sevilla. What a beautiful city it is and I have taken a lot of pictures for you to see. Enjoy. We went for a quilt show, however my camera´s batteries gave out on the steps to the show so I will have to wait for the pics of the quilts and post them later. we were slightly disappointed as it wasn´t the big show we were anticipating but there were some beautiful and innovative quilts there.
Please bear with me while I post the pics. Thanks Elle How about this for a smart train bound for Barcelona [ATTACH=CONFIG]130893[/ATTACH] the Cathedral,huge and very old, the back piece has a mosque on it from the Moorish times [ATTACH=CONFIG]130894[/ATTACH] One of the many trams that trundle through the city centre [ATTACH=CONFIG]130895[/ATTACH] |

Looks like you had a wonderful time! I think the carriage ride would be great. You are so right, it is a beautiful city.

Elle,
Thanks for sharing your trip. The pictures tell the story of a wondrous time. I wish our North American governments would support the growth of trains (I hate to fly). What an efficient looking sytem. Thanks for putting a picture to what little I know about Spanish history. |
