Seville, Ole!

Getting from Granada to Seville was a breeze! We took a taxi from the center of the city because the buses weren´t running, and easily got seats on the next bus. We ate a meal in the bus terminal, Ryan (who is a vegetarian) got a disgusting vegetable sandwich covered in mayonnaise, he hated every bite and we all laughed as we enjoyed our real sandwiches!

The bus ride was like 3 hours, and we all got some much needed sleep. It took about 10 minutes to walk from the bus station to the hostel, and was easy enough to find. This hostel is alright. It´s set up on 4 different floors, with no true common space, and the rooms are really hot! But it has a roof top terrace, which is awesome, as long as the sun is not up.

Day one was pretty uneventful, because we were all so tired from our late night in Granada, and the traveling. We walked around close to our hostel, and got acquainted with the streets, which are narrow, all look the same, and have at least three different names depending on where you get on them.

At night we went on a Tapas tour that the hostel provided. I have to say after Granada, I was not really impressed. There were like 20 of us, and it was hard to share the tiny plates, and it just wasen´t that good. We met this southern guy named Bo, who lived on a tobacco plantation. Words can´t describe Bo, he was truly a character out of a Mark Twain book.

After the Tapas tour we headed up to the roof with a few bottles of wine, and just chilled out up there talking to travelers. We met an awesome couple from LA on their honeymoon, who worked on the Kim Karsashian show, so we all kind of made fun of that, but they were really nice! After the roof we went to a bar next door, we called The Cave, because it had no real walls, just stone. They have the best menu though, and are open so late. It´s like living next door to a McDonald's!
