Saturday 14 February, Valentine's Day

Seville's tram system only has six stops
We woke early to have breakfast with Laura and say goodbye to her. Then we decided to explore the tram system, only 6 stops in total, from San Bernardo to Plaza Nueva.
In the Plaza de Espana we learnt more about the city's history




We explored Plaza Nueva and the streets of shops around there. We visited the food hall in El Corte Ingles department store and bought some manzilla sherry. We met Cheri and David also looking round. Kathryn and Robbie arrived in Seville and Laura got home safely.

In the gardens near the Plaza


We got stamps for Australia in the central post office and had lunch in a bar outside. Then we rested at the hotel. After that we walked down to the Plaza de Espana again and explored on all sides, and also the nearby gardens.


For dinner we booked to go to El Cabildo, which was in a small square near the cathedral, which was floodlit. We had a table for nine upstairs and found that the set tasting menu was very good value. We wrote in the guest book afterwards as we also had good service.
