OMG-Sevilla...Cultural overload!

We rose early to see our 4* hotel in the daylight. Wow! Breakfast was a full hot and cold buffet with real fried and poached eggs...we've been jonesing for real eggs for a week.

Fully sated we took the downtown bus to the city center where we met our private guide Francisco. Well educated, charming and proud of his city, he took us on a four walk through the cathedral and christopher Colombus's tomb. Actially pretty darn cool! then the Roman boat works, the charity hospital, money changer bazaar, and the riverfront. There we had a short rest watching scullers practicing.

Then it was off the Royal Palace there we saw amazing Moor and Christian architecture and dramatic gardens. We ended our tour winding through the Jewish quarter before saying goodbye to another great guide.
