Today we paid a visit to the Itálica Roman ruins right outside of the city. We wandered the streets of the ancient town and saw the once spectacular homes, gardens, and theater of the city. Intricate mosaics, carefully carved statues, and olive trees were strewn throughout, making for quite a scene. From the top of the hill, we could look down on Sevilla in the distance.
I also feel that I should explain the inspiration of my blog name here. In order to get to the ruins, we rode giant tour busses, and when we got back on the bus my friend and I spotted graffiti on an abandoned wall that said "tu sonrisa es mi sonrisa" this translates to "your smile is my smile" which was the perfect name for this adventure and blog. I wish I had a picture, but it was too far and the bus windows were too blurry.
