Sevilla

View Julie; Joe; Kari; Megan's European Holiday on Jcarrara's travel map.

This is a great city. We arrived last night.

After, leaving malaga, we travelled to Ronda- this is described as a white town. The town is one of a few in the mountains. Joe did a great job manuevering all the twists and turns- even with a camera in his hand. Ronda is a great place to visit. Nice views and we went to the bullfight museum. We left and went through more mountains and these white towns. It is amazing to imagine anyone getting there to live and build without these new roads.

The roads here are awesome. All new and without traffic. A great decision to drive Spain.

We are staying in a beautiful hotel. The Hotel Alfonso XIII. It is a reored palaceJin the heart of Sevilla. Two nights were needed in one place. There are great little winding roads and fantastic gardens, palaces, squares ect.

Today Joe and I separated- I'm a morning person and wanted to take pictures before everyone started for the day. In Spain, 10 am is early. After walking and exploring the area, went to the pool and siesta. I'm a big fan of this custom.

Tonight dinner and on road to Portugal. We planned a coastal route to Lisbon. J

Hi Honey -- I am glad you and Joe are having some fun after a bad start. I am proud that you can let go of the theft -- things can always be replaced -- just stay safe. This travel log is a new experience for me -- thanks for teaching me new ways of communication. I can't wait to see the photos too! Love, Mom

Julie, thanks for keeping us posted on your travels. Sorry about the theft. Chicago is sadder without you here. McCain's VP choice, Sarah Palin, has a pregant 17 yr old daughter. Hurricane Gustav faded to Category 1 before hitting New Orleans.
