Hotel Alcazar

So this will be the first of many blogs today... I have a little catching up to do. But the first of these is about my first night here in Sevilla. We stayed at the Hotel Alcazar which is river-side and absolutely adorable.


When you first walk in, just like in every store it seems, the floors were made of stone. I don't know if it was marble or granite or something else but I loved it. All the lobbies had cute chairs and decorations that were so antique. It was simply darling. Especially our rooms!! I got to room with Blair, which was nice.

Now, if you read my last blog you'll remember that we (our group of five) came into town late, so we had to rush to our restaurant to be able to eat that night. But I was so happy we got to eat there! It was such a cute little restaurant.

We had a salad, chicken, and french fries for dinner. Our program leader told us she asked the restaurant not to "shock" our systems with any food that will seem too different. But for dessert I got to eat a prized Sevillian orange... talk about juicy and delicious. Although, a little tip, never eat the oranges off the trees that you see on the sidewalks. They are supposed to be very bitter.

After eating our simple dinner we walked back to the hotel to finally get some rest. The only thing that kind of creeped me out was this guy who hung on every floor at the top of the stairs and did nothing but stare at you.



But otherwise, a very good first night in Sevilla.

Hasta luego,
