L is for lighting

Lighting ( the deliberate application of light to achieve some aesthetic or practical effect) enhances two of Seville's landmarks: the Gold Tower up front next to the Guadalquivir river,  and   the Giralda (the bell tower of the Cathedral of Seville).

N is for numbers

ABC Wednesday

Numbers, we need them!! featured here is the number two (lower right) labeling one of the entrances to Seville's bullring (Plaza de Toros) , La Maestranza, which was constructed over the late-17th and 18th centuries and is one of the most famous venues in all of Spain to take in a bullfight. Again, I was here only to admire  its baroque facade, painted white with yellow trim, and not to actually see an event, I couldn't ever watch a bullfight... Never!


Update after the 12th comment: you bloggers are brilliant! I didn't see a face until you mentioned that!!

not a cloud in the sky

A sight of Seville's bullring , La Maestranza, the oldest one in Spain. Not my favorite Spanish tradition but I love the architecture.


Today, Oct. 7th,  is my birthday, please have a piece of cake while you are here. Cheers!

Windows in beautiful Seville (Spain):

Sometimes the old streets are very narrow. Imagine being able to shake hands with your neighbor when you open your window!
