Seville

Seville is a lovely town! We arrived on the bus from Madrid with the opposite impression! Obviously we arrived from the wrong side…..we had heard a lot about Seville so our expectations were high! After being pretty much told to go away by the bus information booth, we started walking towards what we hoped was a nicer side of town! We found the town information centre. It’s funny – finding that little ‘ i ‘ now is like stumbling upon an old friend – one that you really really like and are so glad to see!! The lady there was really helpful and gave us a map complete with squiggly line to show us where to walk to our new hostel! We walked through lovely little streets – tons of shops and pedestrians, and nice looking people! The streets are so clean and the weather is so lovely! We made it to the hostel about 5PM, and were starving because we hadn’t had lunch! We found our way to a supermarket, and bought a French stick for €0.20,We got some camembert spread, chorizo sausage, rocket, and a gazpacho mix of vegetables – our best buy ever! €3 for 4 huge tomatoes, cucumber, capsicum and an onion – meant for cold soup but perfect for sandwiches! Some beer (with a free T-Shirt!), wine and chips, and took it back to the hostel. We made the best sandwiches ever, and had heaps of salad left over for lunch the next day!
