Pig's Cheek and Fish Eggs

Alex, Jules, Sam, and I spent 2 nights in Sevilla, which was amazing. On our full day there we did all of the "tourist" things without doing them in a tourist way. Everyone refused maps and we wandered the city. I really like Spain since they let students get into places free. The Cathedral was a 5 euro discount and the Palace was free. The Plaze de Espana was under construction which sucked but it was still nice. Every meal we ate was Tapas, tapas, and more tapas. This consisted of fried baby squid, fish eggs, pig's cheek, croquetas y jamon, some river fish (hundreds of them), and a bunch of unidentified items... we're still not sure. That night we went to a Flamenco show, but compared to the other one it was pretty lame. There wasn't much emotion or passion from the performers or the audience. The one I went to on the first night was in a much more intimate setting which may have had something to do with it. This morning we just shopped around and what not and caught a train back to Cadiz. We leave Spain tomorrow and wake up the next day in Morocco! Woohoo! I can't wait! Facebook is being bipolar as far as uploading stuff goes so maybe in South Africa or something.
