Seville is beautiful! A lot like Florence in some ways. We spent the morning walking around the cathedral area, especially the network of alleys in the old juderia. Gorgeous. Another highlight was the Archivo de los Indios, a National-Archives-like building housing documents related to the New World, from 1492 onwards. The current exhibit is on Spain's role in US history, which was both educational (I knew nothing of Spains involvement in the revolutionary war) and fun (translating the signs for Ryan). A highlight for me was seeing a very early map of NorCal, including Capes Trinidad.
Unforch, Everything else was closed today (Monday! Grr) so we finished up with a trip to a park with extravagant buildings built for a 1929 expo.
The rest of the day has been devoted to eating things. Said things have been both plentiful and delicious.
