Exploring Sevilla

Sevilla was the next stop on our end of summer vacation, after a week in Portugal. We stayed near the historic center, about an eight minute walk to the Real Alcazar and Cathedral. Sevilla is part of the Andalucia region, an area where I may have ancestral family connections. My 7th-great-grandfather Francisco Ruiz Canete y Monterde was supposedly born in nearby Malaga, Spain in 1735. In any case, I felt very comfortable in Sevilla.

We loved Plaza de España and the Real Alcazar, these were the highlights of our brief stay in the city. I really wanted to see the Roman ruins at Italica, but we ran out of time. We're going to have to go back.
