Sevilla

So Ive been a bad blogger and havent blogged for 2 weeks, however I dont think anyone actually reads them so it probably doesnt matter. I took the bus to Sevilla on a Friday morning. It took about 6 and a half hours but we finally got there. It was super hot, nearly 110 degrees, but the city was super cool and I really enjoyed it. First we found our hostel, and then we went on the hostel walking tour. The tour guide was from Israel and was easily the best tour guide Ive had all trip. Then after, we got food and ice cream and just walked around for a bit. We were super tired and in bed by 11. We got up at 7 to begin touring before the heat. We went in the Cathedral, which was equally amazing as every other one I have seen. The Cathedral has this 100 meter tower which we climbed and could see the whole city. It was very awesome. Then we went to the Alcazar which is the palace for the leader of the city. It was really nice, I especially enjoyed the gardens. I managed to get lost in a maze however. We went to the Plaza de Espana and took a break for lunch and nap. We went to mass at 8, which was cool although in Spanish, and then went to get food to watch the game. Then we watched the 3rd place game and walked around the city at night. The next morning, we woke up at 7 to catch the bus back and prepare for the finals.
