Day one: Seville to Guillena

15 miles

Pretty good day to start; both the rain and mud were minimal. I only got lost twice.

At the cathedral

The first of many trail markers

The first few miles were kinda not too interesting

Narrator: she did not, in fact, visit the monuments

The beginning of the countryside

This cow and I had a staring contest. We both think we won.

Lunch break

My destination. It’s about an hour away from this spot

Lovely day in Seville.

I saw the royal castle, which did not disappoint. After my daily treat, the Seville cathedral. It’s no st. Peter’s in the Vatican, but it’s close.

Lots of cats and churches ofc.

Then a walking tour around the city center.

Ill head out tomorrow for Santiago.

The city is just so damn pleasant before all the tourists are up

Inside the Alcazar. It was really too dark for good pics

The royal gardens are wonderful

Im sure the sun came out just for me

I was low key hoping the bells would go off while we all were up there

Good old whipping Jesus. My favorite kind of Jesus

Kinda unreal

Ah yes, the 14th century burger king/city wall we’ve all heard about

March 4

A travel day to Seville. The city is beautiful and way bigger than Cordoba. It’s not as charming, but it has so much more to see.

I only have one day for sightseeing, so I went out and saw what I could today.

Interesting public art piece in the historic center

I had to steal pics of the Plaza de Espana

Every province of Spain has one of these ceramic benches

March 3

Had a delightful day of sightseeing in Cordoba. The weather was perfect and I saw a lot. I took two walking tours.

An important personage in the Jewish quarter.

Darling little neighborhood with private houses that welcome visitors to look at their patios

Apparently it takes 2 hours to water in the summer

Professional photo of the Street of the Flowers

Royal stables. We got to go and admire the horses. Im not a horse person but they are beautiful animals, and very well cared for.
