On the 20th of April 580 "Guidare" took off to Seville (Spain). We spent 48 intensive hours in one of the most magical cities in the world. Seville welcomed us with a marvelous scent. I think it was a mix of jasmine and orange blossom (azahar) that made that perfect blend.
The weekend had many surprises. After having checked in at the hotel there were some information on the behalf of the company that I work for. At the end, a woman called Karin walked up to the stage and sang three pieces out of three different operas. She spellbound me. I have never sensed that before. It was amazing. During the last two years Paco (my beloved) and I have been thinking of visit one opera house and experience an opera performance. Now we're definitely going.
In the evening eleven buses took us to eleven different tapas restaurants all over the city. I had the good fortune to end up at a place called "El corral del agua" situated in the old town "El barrio de Santa Cruz". We dined on a patio full of flowers and plants, and the sky over our heads. We had good manzanilla, jamón, aceitunas, croquetas, pescadito frito and of course vino tinto.
To end a perfect day we took a walk from the restaurant to the hotel. I made sure we took a little detour so that we came to see the amazing cathedral and "La Giralda". I have visited this place twice before but it makes the same great impression on me as always. It is magical. We also saw the golden tour "La Torre del Oro" by the river "El Guadalquivir". The temperature was pleasant, about 17 ºC.
