Exciting parts of the trip:
--the hour-long trek across Sevilla to the bus station (involving much walking)
--a great view of a Roman amphitheater
--the best orange juice in the WORLD! They have juicers in all the cafes for fresh juice!
(For you Spanish students out there, they don't call juice "jugo" like you learn in school. It's "zumo.")
The pictures:
1. The tunnel where the lions came out to meet the gladiators in the arena!
2. An aerial view of the arena. The yellow clay is native to Sevilla... it doesn't get goopy when it rains. They have the same clay in the bullrings so they never have to call off bullfights for rain!
3. An arch, and some friends' backs. :)
4. A gorgeous Roman FLOOR! I can't believe they walked on this.
5. The amphitheater

That floor is beautiful! Amazing how old things are over there. Our American minds can hardly fathom it all.
Gig'em.
Seeing the tunnel where the lions came out is incredible! Wowowowow. I'm gonna live vicariously through you for the next 5 months, okay? Okay.
Dude. Seriously. I can hardly believe that you're there, right now, experiencing all of this. HOw incredible is that??? I love you so much, keep up the international relations!
Yea, I finally got signed in! I love your pictures and commentary! However, the scenery looks so much like Amarillo, it's not even funny. I, too, love touring our local lion's den and arena.
Seriously, I'm so proud of you, Alyssa. You're fun to live vicariously through! We're praying for you!
