Day Seventeen

Two tours, class, ice cream and sun.  Thats what today consisted of.  We went on a tour of El Real Alcazar de Sevilla, which is the royal palace of Sevilla. Its where the King and Queen live when they come to visit the city :)  It was absolutely beautiful and had courtyard after courtyard of orange trees and fountains, as well as a labyrinth and a waterfall.

We also got our first real tour of the University of Sevilla! Fun fact: the building used to be a tobacco factory.  Its an enormous building but everything looks exactly the same because its just one giant square.  There is no doubt in my mind that I will get lost.

Then there was dulce de leche ice cream.


Picture of the day: This is a view from one courtyard into the next in Alcazar.  I was standing in a courtyard filled with orange tress and a fountain, and looking into this courtyard which has a giant pool (but not for swimming) with a waterfall, fountain, and palm trees!
