**On Wednesday, we were able to really dive-in to the details of Seville.
Without our great tour guide, Juan, our group of UT students may have left the sights of Seville uncovered. We began the day by waking-up in our new hotel in downtown Seville. All of us being new to the large city of Seville, it took a little adjustment. Pleasantly, we all woke-up to a delightful breakfast in a downtown area.

The highlight of the day, without a doubt, was the Cathedral at Seville. Being the third largest Cathedral in the world, behind Saint Paul and Saint Peter, it was truly a magnificent site. Having never been to either of these other holy sites, I can only imagine how they could match in grandeur.
The beauty was amazing. With high arches and beautiful stained glass, the Cathedral provided a beautiful Christian site for our eyes. The Cathedral at Seville also provided a beautiful view of Seville as a whole. Being able to journey up to the highest tower in Seville, all 37 ramps (whew), the site at the top was well worth the hike! We had an amazing view of the whole city.
After the tour of the grandioso Cathedral, we were able to grab a bite of lunch and take a traditional Spanish siesta. After an hour or two at the hotel, we ventured back out and toured the Worlds Fair Park. With a garden the boasts flora and fauna from all around the world, the park was impressive to all of us.
The night provided a little bit of free time for us to grab some dinner and enjoy the town of Seville. With boutiques and cafes all-around, the town was quite the pleasant experience.This being last night in Spain, it took a little time to appreciate all that we’ve seen since we landed days ago. From the coast of Lloret De Mar to this dry heat in Seville, we’ve experienced all different conditions throughout Spain. While we’ve enjoyed Spain thoroughly, we’re ready for the adventure for adventure that Portugal presents.
