Touring Sevilla

"We are enjoying Seville. It is smaller than Barcelona and the pace is slower. Today we visited the Cathedral and the bull ring. The bull ring was very interesting. Yesterday there was a bull fight so we wandered around the outside watching the crowds gather and seeing the local people. The Cathedral was amazing; Christopher Columbus is buried there....at least his remains are in the cathedral. There are over 30 chapels and too many saints for me to remember. The choir is fantastic as is the altar. The cathedral is undergoing renovations...perhaps it always is with such a large building. We have also visited an art gallery and the palace that is the Royal residence when the king is in Seville. Tomorrow we take the train to Cordoba.

Love Mom"
