Lo Siento

I'm really not that great at keeping up with this thing, so I'm trying to make a habit of updating every morning before I start my day out in the city. This post will serve as a catch-up for my trip so far and will include MANY pictures, so get ready.

On our first night in Sevilla, we ran across these outdoor squash courts...what better location to put a sport that has plexiglass, and thus see-through, walls than right next to the gorgeous river

We also ran into an old, unfortunately handsy, grandpa at our first real discoteca. Janie's about to get a surprise pinch on her other cheeks.

I know tourism is the main source of income for Spain, but a rollerblading tour just sounds like a disaster on wheels, especially along Sevilla's cobblestoned streets.

Jackie, Alex, Lauren, Thomas, and Janie sassily crossing the bridge to Cordoba

First a mosque, then renovated with catholic intentions, this is the cathedral in Cordoba

Morgan, Alex, Kari, and Malika dutifully following our tour guide into a dead-end alley for a picture opportunity that is ruined by the presence of so many photographers...

our sassy coordinators, MJ and Sara

Then we're greeted in Granada by a protest with a Rosie the Riveter theme

Bess, Kel, and Michelle getting fierce for our flamenco show

we saw 4 brides over the course of the night, and all of my pictures were blurry

on our walk to the flamenco caves, there were several picturesque moments

the Alhambra at dusk behind us.

The next day, we got to visit the gardens of the Alhambra, and then the palace itself. PS, all of these pictures are from Thomas's camera because mine died...oops.

I'll leave you with a picture of Thomas and I infront of one of the main buildings of the palace. It was breathtaking there, and our guide said that a lot of wealthy couples have their honeymoons on the grounds of the Alhambra (because there are a couple small hotels)... so, Mr. Right? I hope you're as excited about our honeymoon as I am!
